I had written to you before and just wanted to say that my problems as far as the pain on the left side of my stomach, finally just went away, i still have to watch what i eat because sometimes if i eat i have to run to the restroom, and you had told me it could be IBS, my doctor agrees, well the problem is that he says the rectal bleeding is from internal hemmorhoids and he gives me Cortifoam or Proctofoam, neither have helped, he says that most peoples internal hemmorhoids will bleed and that is not dangerous. he had talked about an operation but after they did my Cat scan he changed his mind because there was nothing "wrong in my stomach" and just gave me the foam, i still bleed after a BM or if i go and urinate and pass gas i will bleed is this normal for internal hemmorhoids? sometimes when i sit or just stand i feel pain inside the rectum, like i said the medicine does not help. What is your opinion (and i did go to a colon/rectal surgeon and he is the one that gave me the foam. Thank you for your last reply.
