Thanks for asking, I decided not to do colonoscopy and to do blood tests and bm analyses instead. Yesterday got answers ....and guess what????
Completelly healthy man, iron levels, hemoglobin, no inflamation .... Nothing... Also I do not have any other sympthoms like abdominal pain or diaherria. All this makes me feel I don't have Crohns, probably I am mistaken... And someone can confirm this..… I will do Lis finally next week and that it is... Decided.

LIS next week! It's great that you've been able to decide once and for all. I'll be thinking of you next week, hoping it's going well and hoping for a full recovery.
Nifedipine/lidocaine, no help
Diltiazem, effective, but caused major rash
Nitroglycerine, effective.
Topical estrogen for final healing.
Gentle heat to bottom - pain relief, muscle relaxant
Kondremul mineral oil
Time - lots of time.
Status - Healed!

Good to know that.

@owmybum
Well i didn't have chron's too. I don't have any other threatening disease. Now the question is why it did not heal by itself or by NG ointment? I believe it is all about internal pressure. Every body is different in their own way and some people develop so much pressure in the pelvic area and anal sphincter. In that case LIS is is the only way to come out of pain and reduce the stress in the region.
