Another update:
Over the weekend, I did end up having some discharge, which led me more to believe it was an abscess. Called the CRS and they moved my appointment to today. Just left there and I do in fact have an abscess, and the doctor said my fissure has moved a little depper into the rectum . I was ready for the abscess news, but definitely not for the expansion of the fissure. It's funny, cause it never really felt like it grew. Maybe my nerves are just shot down there now.
Anyway, my CRS is recommeding surgery now, but not for a LIS. Instead he wants to do 2 things.
1. Do a botox injection. He seems to think that the botox will be enough to heal the fissure as he said I'm not all that tight down there. He said a little bit, but he didn't have any trouble getting his finger or speculum in there, so he said not really that tight.
2. He wants to make a small incision on the outside of my rectum/anus where the fissure / abscess is to 1, drain it and 2 promote more blood flow to the area for healing.
All in all he said 30 minute outpatient procedure under general anesthesia.
I have to admit, I'm a little scared. I've never had surgery before, let alone a surgery on my ass lol. I know it's very low risk, but still when they have to tell you of the complications and that you could die, it's scary.
Thinking about getting a second opinion just so I can have one, but my primary care doctor did recommend this guy saying he's the best here.
Right now surgery is scheduled for June 15'th. They said take 3 days off of work and no traveling for 2 weeks. At least for the first week.
