Day 4.

No real change today.  Continuing the pain medication, sleep, meditation, and sitz bathing.  Taking it easy but able to go up/down stairs and be present for some parts of the day like dinner/bedtime.

Had a larger BM today but still not back to a 'standard'.  Whereas the previous ones where nuggets this was more like one small log - so seemingly that is a good progression.  BMs are painful for sure, but by taking it easy, not pushing, and using a measured cycle, it is not so bad.  I would give this a 4 on the pain scale.    Sitz baths immediately after really help.

One Percocet today only so again the pain is very manageable.
