OK so i saw a surgeon finally after 5 months of dealing with this fissure. he had a look with his camera and said he can see scaring for what looks like a healed fissure, but will probably keep retearing (which it is!). he said i need surgery, and he made out like it was no big deal.
i said i was reluctant because of incontinence and he said there is 0 chance of incontenence! he said he has never had a patient with any level of incontinence, and he only cuts the muscle a tiny bit so u still have control.
i was still reluctant though and asked for botox, and he is asking a collegue to do this for me. im sorta feeling like ive made the wrong decision now though as he seemed so confident about LIS. he also said it will take 1 week to heal???
has any one ever had a surgeon that confident, and then ended up with a bit of intontinence?
he also works with my mum and so if he did leave me incontinent hed have to see her at work all the time...
