I decided I owed this forum...you have all been so so helpful! I delt with a fissure for months...I still have it, but have managed to get the spasms under control. I will write about that in another post. :) Anyway, when I first had the fissure diagnosed this past December, I found out that I had a pretty large anal skin tag, maybe the size of a marble. I had no clue that I had it...yeah.... So, ever since I have had the spasms under control (Feb) I have been obsessed with the skin tag!! It has caused me some problems, but mostly I just wanted it gone!!!! So...today was the day! :) I went into the OR on light meds to relax me, they put me on the table, I made sure my music was set, and the next moment I was being wheeled down the hall asking if it was done!! (I did not have general anaesthesia...just knocked out) I felt not a thing! I am home now (5 hours post op) and so far, I have zero pain. I took two advil about an hour ago only in anticipation of pain. I know I have read about pain coming later...so we'll see. :) I will keep you updated, as I have benefited sooooooo much from others doing the same!
