Pelvic floor therapy really has helped me, @bxavier1 . It was a leap of faith for me since I didn’t understand much about it. My provider that recommended it was confident it would help and I needed help, so I tried it.

After my testing I went to a local therapist and didn’t make much progress. In fact, she told me she could give me some relief but couldn’t do anything to fix it. Then, I went to Mayo Clinic and went through their bowel evacuation program. It was not the end-all to solve my problems but definitely part of it. I wish there was a magic pill or easy button.

Are you thinking about pelvic floor therapy? How are you doing, what is your biggest struggle right now?

My gastroenterologist np wants me to start this therapy but I want to know the results of my anal manometry test first. Did you have an anal manometry test? If so, I’m wondering if you could share the results. Thank you so much for sharing your experience.
