G'day Eion. Love ya. I'm definitely improving. Even ventured out to sink some **** this arvo. By Crikey there's some exceptional first weekend of summer totty about.
But they're all so pouty after that sudden summer eve downpour. Get over yourselves. Have 13 beers and you won't even feel your ********. Smile.
On the subject of not wanting to feel your ********, it turns out I'm joining beepers in the bumpy bum club. Not the Christmas present to myself I was looking for, but since I'm not a plumber I get the lightweight version, not needing drugs, but haven't been on a bike yet. I'm hoping its not going to be a drama, but I'll find out soon.

At least I have an excuse for rhoid rage now,:big-smile: Nah, just feeling sorry for myself, getting old etc. so far I'm using stone fruit as a stool softener, its working well. I'll be rooted when it goes out of season though........ Oh and go suck a big one classo, your turn will surely follow. You. Every. Where.......
Actually if you're prone to using your upper body when you pedal ie pulling on the bars to increase your leverage it will definitely make them worse. It's a posture that doesn't help rhoids. Leg pressure only and no diaphragm pressure should be ok. I ll need to learn to remember that when I get back in the saddle. And if you ever feel the lumps when you're wiping you'd better get used to pushing them back up past the sphincter. Hopefully they'll diminish with time. Psyllium husk is cheap (it's what's in expensive Metamucil) at the supermarket and a spoonful a day on muesli or whatever is simple.Helmet Hair said:On the subject of not wanting to feel your ********, it turns out I'm joining beepers in the bumpy bum club.

Yep, and psyllium has absolutely no flavour, so you can add it to whatever you like (including soups). It absorbs a lot of fluid however, so be aware of that and make sure you drink enough water during the day. I chuck mine into yoghurt (the real stuff, unsweetened) with some fruit - stewed rhubarb at the moment - and a bit of oat bran for extra fibre.
Actually, the lack of flavour can make it a bit weird as well, which I think is why Metamucil is so popular. But definitely agree, a bag of psyllium husks from the supermarket is way cheaper than Metamucil.
