Hi everyone.
So this Friday will mark exactly the third Friday after I had the LIS. To be clear I had LIS, tag removal and some hemorrhoids excized.
I am still experiencing some stinging through the day, and while the pain isn’t terrible, still have some discomfort with BM’s despite taking 2 colace a day and having a good diet.
I’m really starting to freak out as I cant distinguish the fissure pain from what could be the wound pain, but a couple of days ago I did have some blood (tiny bit) on my TP so I’m worried I might have tore again.
This was honestly my worst fear and I am freaking out that the surgery didn’t work. I did have a follow up at week 2 but my CSR didn’t do a full examination and said to come back in about 4 more weeks if I’m still having any issues.
Anyone else here have a similar experience? Did you find that the pain went away with time?
Thinking of booking an appointment with a therapist as this has been such a tough experience. I’ve lost over 20 pounds in the last 6 months, am terrified of eating anything ( I do eat normally but I’ve become afraid of food if you know what I mean) and in general I don’t know how I’m going to cope if this surgery fails.
I’m only 25/F so I don’t even know if a second surgery will be an option as I haven’t had kids yet and don’t want to mess up that area too bad before then.
