Hi, Maggie. I'm so sorry you've been hit with so much. The hemorrhoids will improve if the constipation and dyssynergia improves. I was to the point of considering the surgery for the hemorrhoids which even the colorectal surgeon told me had a very difficult recovery but now things are under control enough so I won't need to do that. One thing to consider is whether lots of fiber is actually the right thing for constipation. My body can no longer process whole grains or woody vegetables like the stalks of broccoli well. There are other foods that provide bulk and fiber that are easier to digest. I also can't handle anything fermented. Sourdough bread has been a game-changer for me and now there's even a sourdough pasta (Bionaturae). Sourdough is easier to digest. And of course, drinking plenty of water helps too. But -- everyone is different. There is a lot of trial and error necessary to get anywhere. BTW, I'm menopausal and 68. Aging plays a role, too...
