Have you been tested for a rectocele? It is something that happens quite commonly to women where you feel pressure like you have to go - right after you go - and you feel alot of pressure all the time -

Look it up and see if it seems like it fits your situation.

Also, I have the same problem - not being able to feel when I go - I do have the rectocele and my pelvic floor is pulled so tight it is inverted (due to severe levoscoliosis in lumbar spine).

I have tried to talk to doctors about the connection - my bowels and the radiculopathy of butt nerve and ongoing denervation in my spine etc and you are right - they look at you like you are crazy.

I know my bowel issues are related to my spine issues - without a doubt.

The issue you face is how bad is it - and can you learn to live with it?

I decided to learn to live with it. I did get help with the rectocele - and did pelvic floor physical therapy that helped alot.

Please google rectocele and see what you think. Let me know. I have other ideas about this topic from personal experience.
