Blair,
I'm glad that you're walking better and will hopefully get rid of the walker soon. Once I no longer needed it, I kept it in front of the toilet to hang my head on during those marathon 'sessions'. Sometimes I was just so tired. All I can tell you is that it does get better, it just takes a lot of time. And though I don't think I tried an enema, I did use Ducolax suppositories as needed. I personally found this part of the healing process to be the most diffiuclt. You can deal with incision pain with meds, as you can with other pains, but those damn bowels wouldn't cooperate for some time. Take everyone's suggestions and try them all.
So hang in there... it will get better.
And on that other topic, hey guys, where do your tastes lie? Whose your #10? Read my new joke!
Dale
