Good luck with the appointment Fissy! Image
I'm waiting to hear all about it! I hope the black hole closed. That would be great news!
Here's a big old hug for you before you go -

hey buddy-buds - I am back Image !!!!!
Good news - he did not do internal exam - vise man LOL. He thinks that hole is closed and he said that there is some swelling still there and that I should continue with baths which I stopped :oops: - I though that since 6 weeks passed I can stop - but NOPE ! He said that he did so much surgery that I should not treat it as "just LIS" and that my new tag will shrink . Since he knows me by now lol, he continued explaining how he knows that Image , since that would be my next Q. He said that when he stretched the skin it was elastic and soft and that means that it is not a scar tissue and should shrink once all is healed completely. He said I should not expect that to happen before the January because many things were cut at once.
So, I am just happy that he did not "go inside" and that I can now relax Image ! My next app. is in 4 weeks !
Thanks all for your concern and words of encouragement and support today Image Image Image Image :wub:

Glad for you to have no internal exam. Sometimes docs really do seem to have our best interest (and no pain) at heart. Congrats!!

Thanks my dearest fiends for being happy for me and for cheering me on to believe in complete haling one day Image Image Image !!!
There is a long way ahead of me and I hope at least that there would not be any major setbacks. I am
still afraid to lower my fiber intake and get off Colace , although going 3 -4 times a day is a nightmare , especially because one has to be home at certain time Image and take soaks - they are driving me nuts - really . I know that it sound crazy but any tome I go into that tub I feel like I am punished or something. I decided to take only one a day before I go to sleep Image and to wash after every BM and keep it clean as I did so far.
"Black hole" could not be seen from outside, so it is only assumed that it probably closed lol, but I have to hope it is and since there is no pain I have to be grateful Image and be patient , i know. I keep my BM VERY soft, so until I have normal medium soft and big BM, I really can not claim any victory Image over this idiotic condition lol !!!
I will not be much on the net today, my fibro is acting up - weather is changing so it effects my muscles a lot : (((.
LOVE YOU AAAAAAALLLLLLL Image Image Image
