@tymayo I too am dealing with vulvar cancer. In the past 6 months I have had surgery, chemo and radiation. I also live alone and the bathroom issues were described perfectly. The crying and pain caused me to stop eating solid food. It was terrible. I know it was hard for u to put your post out there but I am thankful to hear from someone else out there that has the same cancer. Remember u are stronger than u think.

Thank you for your kind encouragement, @bobette1. It really helps to know that I am not alone in some of these side effects, even though I am sad to hear anyone else has to deal with it. Coming across the Mayo Clinic low fiber diet has been a game changer for me. I still struggle with pain but the worst, the impactions, have mercifully stopped.
