The 2nd lot of antibiotics have failed (so far) to clear my Pilonidal sinus. As it happens I had to stop the course short, as the burning I got from it was constant and unbearable. Its also close enough to my anus to have spread to my ring, so yet again, I can't bear to sit down for more than about 15 mins at a time.
I've been told my Fissure and incision site since the LIS (12 weeks ago) is now healed, yet it still stings if I pass wind, when I wipe my backside and when I walk...Exercise, sex or anything else fun in life just isn't an option. The internal examination's left me even sorer than before, still having to ice 3 days later. Surely my Fissure if healed shouldn't be giving me so much jip ?
My CRS thinks it's all down to my Pilonidal Sinus, but I'm not so sure. He feels the only option now is another operation to try to fix my PS, but the results on the various methods to tackle this problem are nowhere near as successful as the LIS is for AF's. And what if he's wrong, and the majority of pain is still coming from the fissure?
I've decided to take stock of things for a week or two before making my next move, but 15 months from the start of all this, 3 months post LIS, and no end in sight yet...
