What do I do?

Long term user but don't want to use my usual name and you'll see why.

I haven't pooped in over 10 days, possibly longer.

Dreadful haemorrhoids at the moment and waiting for a consultant appointment but things are really bad now. I've spent the weekend using various laxatives, drinking coffee, orange juice, castor pil, stool softeners and nothing happening. Seems to be a blockage because I'm only passing diarrhea and this morning, I woke up to a leakage. Also awful nausea but no vomiting. The pain is unreal.

I'm at loss. Please can someone give me some advice.

A & E would be appropriate OP. Can be life threatening and you need to be seen to ASAP. Go in NOW.

Assume you've been to the GP, can you go back with present symptoms until you wait for consultant to deal with the overall issue

I think you should phone 111 and ask for advice. The amount of things you have taken should have done something, I would suspect a blockage.

Not a poo troll but I can't face talking to anyone IRL about this
