Haven't mentioned this before because of it being a rather sensitive subject(for Barbara), but she has been coping with constipation and hemorrhoids for a couple of months. I am pleased to say that things are improving and the frantic dashes to the bathroom are fewer and the misses are mostly near misses. Thank goodness, Barbara was becoming a little discouraged. Not a problem for me I have no aversions to bodily functions. However as I said to Barbara when you think of the possible diagnosis' the constipation/hemorrhoids are manageable and things will improve.
