Too Much Information

Back away from the computer. Or close this window. Because I am about to tell you too much information.

I very much look forward to the day, in the distant future, when I do not cry while sitting on the toilet.

3 weeks, 4 days. Dear GOD.

Hey, Google. I am going to make it so anyone facing this surgery can find me: Anal Sphincteroplasty. Anyone who finds their way here because of this post and wants to know about this surgery, please email me with questions. I will be totally candid about my experience, which you may or may not want. But there it is.

Hmph.

My butt hurts.

I suppose you’re going to say that’s not really news, but I felt compelled to share anyway.

Yesterday I was doing some “vertical training,” which means that I stood up a lot more than I have been. I folded 5 loads of laundry while standing up. Not in a row, but 5 loads, anyway.

For the first time in about 10 days the pain woke me up in the middle of the night.

Okeydokey then. Apparently my efforts must be more gradual. Got it.
