Bad news: my asshole is killing me from crapping and wiping
Good news: everything is completely normal, looks like some IBS. The reason it got so bad close to surgery is because it can be aggravated by stress.

I AM NOW FREE TO RESCHEDULE SURGERY!

Glad to hear. I had IBS for year...I said had because getting my RNY has cleared it up completly. Which surgery are you getting again? Ask your doctor which surgery could relieve IBS. My RNY killed about 5 birds with one stone; IBS, high blood pressure, congestive heart failure, high cholesterol, snoreing, weighloss, back pain, blood flow (you can figure that one out), exercise ability, cost of food (though I buy better quality food...with small amounts), cheaper clothes (no more big and tall), Lost work time (IBS or other thing I'd have to call off), even the cost of gasoline (riding my bike), ect...

I think its going to be the lapband. I have 100lbs or less depending on who you listen to to lose, and the doctor thinks I can really pull it off with the band due to my level of physical activity, even at 275-280 lbs.
