Hi all!
Things are actually starting to go better.... I think.... Touch wood!!
The monster hem is still aggravating and swelling to unbelievable proportions.... But fissure wise, things are calming down. :D 
Coccyx pain still there... But it comes and goes as opposed to being a permanent fixture!
I have been icing when needed, eating the manuka honey x2 a day.and just using plain old anusol on Ben Nevis, as absolutely everything else is stinging me.. Even sudocream.
Still on 2 movicol a day. Will think about dropping down to 1 1/2 in a week or so.
Richi...... When is your appt??? Xx

Good idea.
Remember to have things written down so you don't forget anything.... You only have 20 or so minutes... You need to make it count.
Are you still having a lot of pain and problems???

Hi omb .
Pains OK .get a throb now and then .and some aching after a bm.as I said I was worried about a little leakage so I have stopped magnesium.and have been on half sachet of movicol for months.I did stop movicol and went to fibre gel one sachet but I think this bulked me up too much .my problem is at the moment to much bulk I would love a little smaller and softer.may be the whole area is still sensitive and a little tender .everyone tells Me it takes well over a year to feal any ware normal.my last op was in DEC .so  I'll ask Mr w loads of questions
Is he ok talk to ect .

Yes... He's very easy to talk to. He's not like a typical stuffy consultant... Very friendly and open.
Let us know how you get on.
