The fissurectomy seems to have worked, but I am 3 weeks out from the LIS/fissurectomy and I continue to have a recurring abscess/infection from the LIS incision. 2 rounds of surgical drainage of the abscess (which was VERY painful) and 10 days of antibiotics and no relief. Love when the doctor says, wow, this is very rare. Did any have an abscess and did it turn into a fistula? I'm worried at this point that I am going to now need another surgery!
