Blood 9 weeks after LIS

Postby shakeit » 19 Jan 2012, 06:10

Hi all
I had LIS 9 weeks ago and at my 5 week appt the CRS said the fissure had healed. Today I had blood from the fissure site. So depressing. I had slightly harder BMs for three days end of last week which I think caused it. I also get hard initial stool and then things are all soft, but I dont know how to stop that.
Should I just wait and let things heal up or should I go back to the CRS?

I would see what happens, it is not unusual to have blood from time to time up to a year, from what I have read on here. Are you in pain??

Thank you for the replies Grannymaria and Sue.
Ok so maybe its just kind of normal then. I'm not really in pain, thank goodness, I just feel a bit sore at the fissure site. Its a bit like a general cut would feel.
I'll reassess after the weekend.
Thanks again!

I had my LIS in September I would say 80-90% of the time I have no issue, but sometimes I still see blood, not sure if from fissure or hemmy, but I dont have pain so I havent been overly worried. Just my thoughts.

Thanks Tony. Glad you're doing well. Not much pain here either, only a slight bit with some bleeding. I called up the CRSs office and they said to come in for a check up as its been a couple of weeks of on off bleeding. Lets see what they say, hopefully its all good still and this is just precautionary.
