Sue 1962- Your last sentence really hit home with me! "I wasted so much time trying to heal my fissure and being in pain". That kind of sums it up huh? How was the recovery? What kind of down time did you have? I'm doing better today- but it's very much a day by day thing. And I'm so afraid that even if it does finally heal, that all it takes is one bad moment, to start the hellacious cycle all over again. I want to start living again, and quit thinking and having to overanalyze every bite and every social event!!!!

Hey Pita
The first 3 days, I did absolutely nothing just hung out on the couch laying down and in the tub 4x a day. Each day got better. I posted each day for a week right here. Recovery was way easier than I thought. The worst part was the swelling. Other than that no problems. Never took a pain pill only advil for a few days.

Hi Pita,
I it's been a month and I was wondering how you were doing?
Feeling fabulous?!
