Any experiences with Diltiazem?

Postby felix » 02 Jul 2015, 15:48

So I have had my AF for 6 months and while ir has been slowly getting better and I have had no spasms for at least a month, I had a bit of bleeding last week and decided to start the Diltizem I have had in the fridge.
It is now a week on it and it has been amazing, no pain at all and my sentinal pile feels much smaller and less sore. I am wondering whether any one else has healed with Dilt and how long after the pan stopped they stayed on it?
I only have a 4-6 week supply and it is really hard to get hold of in the UK as my GP can't prescribe it...I am worried that it is only masking the AF and not healing it.....
Any thoughts/experiences greatly appreciated .

I'm in the States & was told room temperature NOT to be put in the fridge. I have a compounded ointment Diltiazem/Lidocaine & to be honest, I've used it over a week now & it doesn't seem to do much.

I have been using diltiazem with lidocaine for 6 weeks, not really any improvement. I find that it stings more than it helps me

Diltiazem only made me itchy/burnie, and didn't help with my fissure.
