I'm right there with you Tony. Had I known then what I know now, I would have had the surgery at 6 weeks! I agree only you can decide when you've had enough. My pain was off the charts too and suicide crossed my mind many times. If it weren't for my, husband, kids and religion...Well that seemed like the easy way out many times...
Linda,
I think your CRS probably knows by experience that the chances of healing a chronic fissure without surgery are slim once months start passing... You can always wait and see how it goes though especially if you aren't in any pain. In my opinion, it's not too soon but if you feel you're healing then I doubt there's any harm in waiting a while.
