hi, first post to introduce myself.
My problems started around 3 years ago, I'd had hemmoroids for around 26 years but as they caused me no probs after initial pain I just left them as they were, had a few painless skin tags. After all this time they started to bleed whilst I went to the loo so as it was something different going on I got them checked out at the docs....he sent me to a crs who agreed I needed a hemmoroidectomy. Surgery was done which was horrendous but the worst bit was that they found pre cancerous cells in the histology. I am under observation every six months and in the last three years have had skin tags removed, a colonoscopy with pile banding and later a polyp removed ( everything clear thankfully) .
I'd say for the last year I've had pain after bms and really bad pain further up which comes and goes, had an MRI because of this and they couldn't find anything so sent me to hospital outpatients and they gave me some exercises to do.
Not getting any bleeding now but near constant pain for 4 weeks which did start off with a bout of constipation.
Doc examined me and says I have a fissure and has given me some cream which seems to help for around 8/9 hours so I'm mostly uncomfortable a few hours before the next dose.
I kinda think I must have had a fissure coming and going for the last year or so as have hardly had any let up from the pain. Obviously get stressed out thinking about anal cancer and look forward to my crs appointment every 6 months! Next one is due in around 10 weeks so will see if the cream helps in that time if not will ask his advise tho he seems only interested in AIN and not so much hemmoroids and the likes. Getting all the info I can from here and crossing my fingers !
