Thank y'all for your replies.  I wasn't completely clear because this wasn't
a simple hemorrhoid.  This was a thromboses hemorrhoid.  <sigh>  I was in
some MAJOR pain for a few days there.  Cried like a baby, I admit it.  It
was horrid.  I couldn't sit to read all the replies but I got to read a few.
I practically lived in my bathtub.

Anyway, my mom asked me why I sounded half-dead when she called me as I was
waiting in the doctor's office as I figured I'd need surgery on the accursed
thing.  I wasn't about to say why in front of other people but she finally
caught on and yelled at me for not taking vitamin E.  I told her to stop
yelling at me and how the heck was I to know that vitamin E helps varicose
veins.  Has anyone else heard that?  Evidently this type of thing runs in my
paternal genetic line and no one told me.

To make a long, gory story short, it did it's thing and maybe decided it was
WAY too big, thus it decided to deflate.  Maybe it popped, I don't know, I
felt half-dead.  Either way, I'm pleased.

To bring the story to CS, my DH made me quite a bit for my sitz-bath (thank
goodness I carted it home after the birth of my 2nd child last year) and it
was not good.  It was cold and thus not comfortable at all.  I do not
recommend it.  Heated, lovely, cold, no.  I am healing rather quickly and
burning has subsided.  Love CS.

I'll read the rest of the replies to see if my next question is answered so
if it's already answered I apologize.  Are there other ways besides vitamin
E to prevent this from EVER happening again?  Evidently this one is prone
for a repeat performance and I'm not in the least bit amused.

Thanks for your help!

Jessica
