I agree Suzy, and that is my fear. I had a y-v which is a MUCH less invasive flap than your procedure. But I also had a severe stricture that was treated with dilation rather than advancement flaps initially, so that makes me think I just need some more skin down there to close the wound. The doctors even acknowledged that I do have a mild degree of stenosis still, but it isn't severe enough that they think it could be the source of these two non healing wounds. I disagree. I think I have stenosis, just as you did. It may be milder than it was, but it's enough for me to rip my wounds open every time I have a BM. The story is similar to almost every other post/hemmie blogger on this website. The initial doctor cut too much tissue out, just like you, OMB, PinPin, and others.
