Hi guys!
I've suffered a lot with a difficult case of AF.
I was totally hopeless and a bit depressed, because all efforts to get better were a waste of time.
I've passed in a few doctors that couldn't diagnotize the AF as an AF.
Terrible!
I'm 31 yo, my sexual life was also suffering! Didnt know what to do!
Lucky i was when i found a good doctor! Suddenly he found out I've got a terrible AF and told that i would have to go to surgery 95% sure.
But he also gave me diltiazem 2%. And I began a very new diet, to make my stool very soft. Meanwhile, i was getting saltz bath and never used toilet paper.
One day, i said no to pain killers. I was becoming addicted.
And right now, 100 days after the beggining of the treatment, i can say: i'm 99% cured! Have no pain! Yay!
Good luck everyone!

can you describe your diet please, what do you eat/not eat?

100 freakin days??? Im getting very impatient now after 38 days on nitro...
When did you first experience painfree days?

What! 100 days!! Oh god, can you let us know what you did with Diet etc..
God damn this JHH I am gonna go on a liquid only diet to kick this when I have Botox next week, can't take it anymore.......

JHH It took me 4 months before I got rid of my pain.
Fbrazil, I am glad that you found a way to make your fissure more comfortable and even cure, let us know what else help you get the healing process take over so fast.

I will move this to Success Stories, as that seems an appropriate place for it. We love to hear what has helped heal someone!

Hello everyone!
First of all, I'm not a native speaker, so that's why you can see some english mistakes.
I dont think i'm 100% healed! But i feel i'm 99% normal!
About my diet: I became to ate foods with lots of fibers. More than i used to do. Like, green salads.
I havent eaten lots of meats (any kind!).
I really stopped any spice food.
I tried to eat more healthy food.
And i DID NOT took any medicine to make my stool smoothier. Going to the toilet more than 2 times a day it's like a suicide.during these days, i used to go twice to my bow movements.
Unfotunately, it takes months to get better. I know as victim of this disease that is very hard this patient, but you must be. It is going to take time to get better.
I was taking very strong pain killers daily and on january 14th i decided to stop with them. I was Just using diltiazem 2% ointment 3 times a day. And i tryed to do 2 times a day the saltz bath.
I remember the feeling about 1 week with no pain killers! I was happy! Not healed, but happy! The first month i celebrated! Guys, it was a victory to me!
But just after 30 days of the diltiazem I first felt better.
In my personal case, i stopped reading the forum. It was making me think in a bad way. Dont know why, because i knew the importance of it.
That's why i decided to come back. I hope this sucess story helps you all!
