Hi Folks,
Went to my CRS today and he checked on my little friend, well as I had suspected from my pain, it is not healing!
He recommended we do surgery this Friday (first he said, "how about tomorrow?").
- It'll be Open LIS as he feels he can control it better and ensure the right tension release
- There will be 2 stitches on the cut, very small cut
- He will cauterize/burn the fissure itself to promote healing
- Since I'm in pain, I do not have to do an enema before the surgery, just no liquid/food midnight before
- He has done "hundreds of these, 3-4 per month, easy procedure"
- He said males have less chance of incontinence then women, he feels it's less than 1%
- He only said I'd get Percocet to help with pain. Do I need anything else?!?
Thanks people, I'm really nervous!!!
