Thank you all for your words, support, advice, and time to reply to me, someone you've never met but can empathize with. I think I have some good news.
I went to see a surgeon !!! yay cheering! standing ovation lol. It was a general surgeon not a colo rectal surgeon but nevertheless not an general doctor and thanks to this site,I would of wasted time, money and hope with a doctor who would of prescibed me suppositories and fiber which would of left me hopeless, frustrated and in pain.
He said i have an anal fissure, he prescribed ... wait for it. NItro paste .02% whoo hoo when i heard those words, I knew that was correct again, because of this site. He told me to get a sitz bath, i said i have one, he said to take a stool softer like miralax or metamucil. I said, I do. He said to gradually up my fiber i said, I have. He said, you pretty much know what your doing then huh, and I said I do. lol.
I get the cream today, he said to put a pea size amount on my finger tip either in a finger cot or with a glove cuz if i get it on my skin over time It will give me headaches and so forth. He preferred metamucil anyone else have any luck with that? i haven't seen it anywhere on this site but I haven't read half the posts on this site so I dunno.
and for the bad news, in addition to my fissure they found a wart. not gential warts he said it does hve to do with sex and it is common in homosexuals but its different then the ones you get on the penis. He had this long name for them but I dont know what it was and he injected it with numbing medication (god knows i hate needles but with the mentality of "what happens today will solve weeks of pain") he sent it to the pathologist to have it looked at so I ask for those of you who pray please pray for me, that all will be ok, thats it not something as serious as cancer or and that it is treatable, curable or nothing at all. For all of you that don't pray but believe in a higher power of positive energy then please send that energy toward my way I need all the positive help I can get. Thank you so much you wonder group of determined people. We have one thing in common that we know of, but all our lives are so different, how beautiful is this place of such diverse humans who come to empathize and offer their help to each other who are going through the same feelings, pains, thoughts, and changes. I love you all even though I've never meet any one of you. Thank you
