Well, I'm home now after my flap surgery. Mr W didn't do a conventional flap in the end, but an internal one.
He excised the fissure and got rid of all the scar tissue, cut a flap from above the fissure and flapped it down over it, stitching it along the bottom. He didn't touch my hemmy.... He said, considering my past history, it's best to leave well alone.
I had a really bad recovery from the anaesthetic.... And an awful reaction to the anti sickness meds... Not helped by my low blood pressure.
I am taking 400mg ibuprofen and 100mg of tramadol... And paracetamol when needed. I have been taking my movicol, plus 10ml lactulose, but have not had a bm yet.... But then I haven't really had more than a couple of mouthfuls of soup. Feeling very tired.
Thankyou all for your well wishes and support, it really makes a huge difference when there are people out there who can truley relate to what you are going through!
Will update soon!
