So it has been 7 weeks since my surgery and I am feeling much better than I did with that awful fissure but I am definitely not healed 100%. I tried to wean off the Miralax…big mistake. I think the skin is so thin down there from the months of treatment that any sort of strain causes the skin to get little cracks and cuts that itch and hurt. I don’t have pain from my fissure but I can still feel that cut from the LIS. It isn’t painful like the fissure but it is still there and lets me know it every once in a while with a zing or some itching. My CRS said I can stay on Miralax forever, so that is my new plan. I wonder if a day will ever come where I can just go to the bathroom without that feeling of panic right before.
Good news is I’m back to work all the time and not calling in sick. The stories here are so helpful I just wanted to give an update. I wish everybody a happy, pain free day. Beleive me, the tears are still fresh in my mind
