lars - i feel like our situations are so similar! it's sooo frustrating...and it's been 2 1/2 years for me! hang in there.
i've been wondering lately if i've developed proctitis also. i've been using hydrocortisone suppositories for the past week, they were prescribed by my primary care dr while she was on the phone with the GI dr who i'm seeing tomorrow. the HC seems to help with the inflammation and i've actually found a job and been working this week for the first time since my fissurectomy 4 1/2 months ago!!! i know the pain will come back, as it always does, so my happiness will be short lived.
anyway, i just want you to know i know how you feel and i completely sympathize. all we can do is keep trying new things, keep seeing drs, and keep trying to get ahold of this thing. also...be patient!! i know it's hard but we have to. hopefully we'll both get over this ASAP and have 50+ more years of problem-free living!!!
nice pic by the way :D
