Aw bless you OMB, Image
Remember the rollercoaster - good and bad days, and it does take SO much time. If you're as impatient as me it's hell! It's more than likely it's the recovery from the general surgery rather than just the fissure that you're still going through and that's a good thing as that will pass in a few weeks. Main thing is if the fissure is feeling OK, then you are doing just fine I'm sure. Recovery from my Fistula took a good 6 months (different procedure I know, but anything down there takes ages to heal to an extent that we feel halfway normal again!) I'm certain Mr Windsor knew exactly how treat you and it's just a matter of time.......Keep doing all the great things I'm sure you are doing and stay strong. Sending you a BIG healing hug,

Sorry bout that.
Im sure you will get better soon. Your botox must have kicked in if you are loose down there, and then its just a matter of time, before the healing starts.

I found in one of the studies botox suppose to work on sympathetic nerve system, but internal sphincter is parasympathetic one.
So it contradicts a bit.. But if there is relief it works!

Hi OMB,
Sorry to hear you are sore but happy to hear your mood is better :). You were saying when you have to go you really have to go, do you try stop it coming? I'm the same but i dont try to stop it for fear i will cause a problem so early in the battle!
