Hey Guys,
Just dropping in to give an update. I peeped in a few times and noticed many of the veteran LIS-ers posted updates and I remembered how much it meant to me while having my fissure to see others come back and share their positive LIS experience.
It's been 7 1/2 months since my LIS/ Skin tag removal and things have been really good for me. I still take the miralax- 1/2 of the cap now. I use to take the full 17g's. I'm still not brave enough to go cold turkey, Lol
I try to eat 20 grams or more of fiber a day and can now eat everything I use to but do so in moderation. I still avoid eating too much red meat, bags of chips or popcorn(thanks NG) but I can eat small amounts with no problems. Life is pretty much normal for me now. Thank God!!
I will never forget all the support I received from this board while having my fissure and after my LIS. I was in really bad shape, mentally and physically when I found this place. Depression and fear overwhelmed me as much as the pain.... This forum was a blessing. I couldn't have did it without you all
Sorry I checked out for awhile. I really needed a breather after a year of thinking about nothing but fissures...
I hope everyone is continuing to see progress and doing well and to all who are on the fence about LIS, don't be afraid. It gave me my life back. This is the best place to get information and support that I feel can't be found anywhere else:):)
