I tore my fissure again around August 17... but the pain wasn't killing me... then something _ and I don't know what_ but I started burning back there, too. The burning is worse than the pain.
I may need to use the dilitiazem longer....
I have another question... when you go to bed if you are hurting REAL bad... should you use an ice pack back there or a heating pad?
Then, how often do you use your dilitiazem? Two or three times a day? My directions just say "Apply to the affected area as needed."-- Well, I had to fight my family doc just to get this stuff b/c she had never heard of it... I had been using nitro paste. It gave me bad headaches.
I take Zoloft... I cannot take Cymbalta-- it makes my mania worse, but I take a moderate amount of Lyrica... but it messes w/ my mania, too.
I was under the impression that if the ointments and baths and fatty acids and aloe vera didn't work, the only thing left to do was surgery... and I AM NOT going that route.
THank you for all of your answers.
