Hi everyone, i have had what they call fistula in ano for over three years, i have had 2 emergency operations and that was for draining, i have only recently to looked for forums and sites for home remedies to help me with what i am going through because i felt so alone in this.
I saw my surgeon a week ago and he has told me that mine could be a life long situation, i started crying because i have 4 beautiful babies and a wonderful husband who supports me, i also study full time doing a degree in primary teaching. to hear news like this breaks me apart, because its not anything nice to live with. i told friends and family " i know its not cancer or anything life threatening, but it is the thought of living with this pain for the rest of my life and not being able to work to support my family or even help my husband to raise our children". But they wont understand until they go through it i guess.
Aside from that my surgeon has planned my next surgery and has told me that he will try his best to make it better so that life would be more comfortable for me to live. umm who says that " i will my best to make it better " Im from New Zealand and honestly i think he is the worse surgeon i have ever met in my life, moving on. i signed paper work for a surgery to go through but he said i have to go back on waiting list and that means waiting again, i asked how long and the surgeon said that i could be waiting anywhere between 6 - 8 weeks.
with the planned surgery he is going to drain and put more seton's in because i have to many openings. and then we are going to do another MRI to see where the main ones are.
I dislike the pain in my bum, and how it can be unbearable sometimes, and how i take a lot of tremadol just to get me through the day and help hubby with our children.
please can someone tell me that this will not be a life long situation i am going to be in and that there is a way to fix this, i wear pads everyday and have to shower atleast 3 times a day in the hopes that i will get better.
just need friendly advice and support because my surgeon just doesnt help at all..
thank you for taking the time to read my story.
