I've had banding with my hemorrhoids 7 times, it's the last try before having them cut off and i needed it doing quickly as i go away on Sunday for 2 weeks.

the previous times i have been put to sleep for it and once I've woke up i have been sore but the pain was bearable, this time i only had gas and air and when he banded my 4 piles i nearly shot to the roof.

the surgeon said he didn't expect my piles to be so big and said they may not drop off but will shrink.

i have never been in this pain, I'm in agony! i opened my bowels earlier but i have trouble with going to the toilet, i ended up going 3 times and had a fair bit of blood in the toilet. is this normal? and should i be unbearable pain 4 days post opp? I'm taking the strongest co codomal i can get.

so scared as I'm going on holiday next weekend.

any reviews and help will be very appreciated******
