I also had problems with the magnesium supplements, upset my tummy too! I'm sorry to hear you're still having problems, and now problems with the MRI stuff. I have stopped using canestan as the nurse thinks it burnt my skin, I have tried timodine and it calms but doesn't get rid of the problem. Have tried another cream from the doc I got on friday and it made it worse, he said if it did to stop straight away and go back so I have....only can't get in to see him until Friday now!! Just using timodine to calm it. Good news on the fissure front, have rung the hospital and have my examination under anaesthetic on 21st November and they will do botox at the same time if they think it's appropriate (I am pushing for this as the private CRS said he thought botox would help it to heal completely as its partially healed). Think they're also checking theres nothing else too so thats all a positive. At least I won't be paying a fortune to get it sorted out, as a less than 2 month wait is ok ish for the NHS. I've got this far waiting!! Just need to sort my other problem now! I really hope you get your problems sorted out, keep pestering the doctor! I was really assertive with the consultants secretary today and it got me somewhere so thats good. You legally have a right to see your medical notes now so you can request it to find out whats going on. Good luck with getting the referral again, let me know how it goes on the 3rd :D
