Welcome @trt55. I added your discussion to the Digestive Health group (https://connect.mayoclinic.org/group/digestive-gastrointestinal-problems/) so you can more easily connect with other members who have experience with hemorrhoids like @fotula @riflemanz64 @harper2018 @richman54660 @sallyw133 @nanny23 @pinelake77 @rashida and others. Hopefully they will have experiences to share that offer hope, help and healing.

TRT, you mentioned that you never recovered from hemorrhoidectomy surgery. Is this the source of constant pain?

I’m not sure. I’ve been back to surgeon 3 times with no help. My family doctor put me on gabapentin to see if it may help if there is pain from nerve damages.

@colleenyoung Im glad to see this here. Im so embarrassed to talk about this. I have horrible rectal pain- went to ER twice but couldn't even say " rectal pain ". I mostly stay curled up in bed every day. This is horrific.
