Oh nooo Hun
That's awful I had a bad night yesterday 3 BMs in an hour...lots of pain but thankfully not full blown spasms. All I can say is by this afternoon my butt felt ok again. The pain does pass hunii even if in the middle it feels too much I even took 2 codeine just to knock myself out as I was getting so stressed about the pain. I think it's the affect it has on us mentally as much as physically that is the biggest thing with a fissure.
Hey you have made great progress and maybe you just need one more round of Botox to get to the end...the first lot got you to 75% healed the next lot only has to get you to another 25. Maybe start your cream again I daren't stop mine yet.
I hope you can check in and I know with absolute conviction that you will get better you are positive and strong and together you your body and your dr will find a way to heal completely.
Take care big hugs x

Hello friend, it took me a week to recover from the setback to the point where I can have a normalish day again. I am still in pain but it does not sting as much and for as long. I have stopped eating variety and gone back to lentil soup and fruit and oatmeal with that I am now doing reasonably better.
Eating very little . But that's ok.

Hi so glad your recovered enough to return. Gosh your having to do so much to stave off the pain, could you ask your CRS about another round of Botox as you will surely end up lowering your immune system if you limit your food intake that much.
There must be something they can do to help you as no one should have to make the decision between sustenance and pain.
Really do hope it continues to improve for you x

Hello dear,
Had a visit with CRS and guess what - I am 90% healed! I am so happy and relieved. Soups and fruit are the current secret . It's all in the diet!
Staying positive to get to the 100% I predict it will be Jan

Hello everyone
I've been suffering of anal fissure for 2 years now and would like to share it with you to help and also learn from everyone.
At the beginning I spent 3 months literally without walking, spasms of pain that used to last for 2 hours, I couldn't even move my hands.
As the doctor thinks the surgeries have the same effect of Botox (I was checking on Google and people in other countries state it's quite effective though...) so... He also says my blood pressure in the area is low so he doesn't think it's worth to pass through that, and according to him, the main reason it the likely of incontinence.
So far I've had Botox injections under general anaesthesia three times (every 6 months) and I'm on the queue for the 4th one.
For me it was ok, no pain after surgery at all, but just in case I always take one week off. In the first month after botox I usually feel an annoying pain but not unbearable, after that I usually feel better, but I only feel really better now. It still hurts, I walk slowly for example, but no more spasms.
For the first time I can see a light at the end of the tunnel.
I was exhausted of taking laxatives so although I was very afraid I took the risk and changed for:
1 and a half tablet of 250mg of Magnesium (sometimes I take 2 tablets of 250 mg)
And 250 mg of turmeric.
You can buy them at Holland and barrets (not all shops always have them, but you'll find it). I take it 14 hours before I intend to go to the toilet. I wake up at 7am so I take at 17.00.
I only eat wholemeal bread, rice and pasta, vegetables that HELP you to open your bowels (not any veg), kiwi, grapes, spinach, AVOCADO, porridge, bran with activia, 4 dry PRUNES at night or overdose of dry prunes when necessary...
I can eat chips for example, but then a lot of all these ailments as well, or more magnesium.
I know everyone knows about the food but I eat this every single day. I eat chicken, meat, fish, beans, everything... But every day: morning: one avocado or activia with brain
Lunch and dinner with lots of veg and not so much carbohydrate
Every day 2 kiwis, or 5 strawberry or grapes
And every single day 3 to 5 dry prunes. People say coffee can be bad but my coffee in the morning makes me go to the toilet, actually it happens after the cigarette :/
I don't feel pain going to the toilet anymore. It's a sacrifice every morning as I can't relax, I just sit to open my bowel when it's really the time, it's like a baby stool, very very very annoying lol soft, no shape.
Well, I really was depressed and there were times that I thought I could end in the streets as I don't have anyone to help, but patience, a loooooot of patience, and the food helped me.
Good luck for everyone.

Yay soooo very happy for you Hun. At last a light at the end of the tunnel lol.
I wish I could pick a food that works for me but nothing does long term.
So pleased you can get back to a normal life x

Thanks friend MPB and Patricia. . Pain is totally bearable for me though still not healed. Went swimming today after many weeks and I did ok.
Went with a friend for a 3 mile walk with our dogs .
A favorite aunt passed away and just saw her hale and hearty recently. Glad I caught her like that a few weeks ago . Life's curveball .
Hang in there MPB
