Err... Not sure if this is the right place to post or not. and its quite embarrassing - but I recently did a water fast, and am having some fruit and veg while breaking it over a few days.
I had a BM within a few hours of my first juice after breaking the fast. since then, It has been very exhausting to keep up with all the BM's.
They sometimes exceed 16 within a 24 hour period.
They are normal, soft, not hard. They appear to be well-chewed, but are still in their food/pulpy form - as if they were the juice pulp from the juicer in the form of a stool. (pardon the graphics). They seem to be effervescent as they hit the water and disintegrate. They do not smell, they are more food-like.
At first I asked my doctor/naturopath who said it was normal as humans have a reflex that means they have a BM with each time they eat. I am eating small snacks throughout the day so at first I wasn't concerned....I was told it was healthy.
But now, after a few days I am beginning to get exhausted from it. I eat just to give me energy to have the next BM, which after leaves me tired, lethargic and low blood sugar. So a have a small snack after a BM... which triggers another BM response, which then makes me tired and lethargic. Which repeats in a feedback loop. I also feel like I am not completely evacuating. I have done an enema which doesn't really solve anything
I tried going back into the fast which solves it momentarily... but upon eating it steadily build momentum to all day in the bathroom.
Also, by the end of the day, after all of my little post BM snacks, I feel sore and bloated, and tired.
Is this normal? I can identify for e.g. that a grapefruit I ate at 3pm exits 5 hours later... is that quite fast? am I absorbing anything after this fast? will this slow down?
As a result I have reason to believe I may be experiencing internal haemorrhoids as I have blood in my stool and rectum... Or could this be something more serious? I am experiencing pain and I may be wearing myself out from constantly cleaning the area.
Any help would be appreciated.
I don't particularly subscribe to colonoscopies.
