i was at the family dr. today as i am leaving for a week or so for north carolina.im concerned over my new devolopment that has arose.i though it was a fistula,to the best of my knowledge....he examined me and says he can see a improvement in the fissure since my last visit to him...remember im now going to a gastro.dr.,but it takes for ever to see him,i figure id get a "quick check" before i left from the regular dr. ..he didnt say it was a fistula,honestly,i believe he really didnt know..says theres no redness as he was looking around in my rear and no sign of infection anywhere,thats when he noticed the improvement in the fissure.anyway,i say that the gastro just gives me cream and sends me on my way,really,i guess he cant do much more than that, the dr told me this....finish up my last 2 referred visits to the gastroentolist,if your not healed or feel you need a higher power,come back in and he can send me to a proctoligst to have every thing evaluated and we can take action.which is what i wanted to hear! now is the proctoligst the same as a colon rectal surgeon,they are in the same building...or is it like the proctolist looks and evaluates,and the crs cuts you up...maybe its the same person with a different color robe on?? what do you guys[and girls] think i should do??
