I've learned so much from everyone here so far...thank you!!! I have been suffering terribly from my AF for about a month and a half now. I'm quite sure I have had them before, but on a WAY smaller scale. I have felt the glass shard feel during a BM before, but not anything like now, and never with with the pain after. Out of no where, it completely came on in the beginning of the past December and at this point, after a BM, I am usually in agony for anywhere from a couple of hours up to an entire day. I have nifedipine, antibacterial supositories, and valium. None of that helps one bit. I do take warm baths, and sometimes that provides some relief, but it's only temporary. I called my CRS and she said there was nothing else she could give me or do until my next appt which is feb 15th. She said if it's not better by then, then she is thinking botox next....but after reading all of this, I'm thinking I may not want to even bother with it and go straight to LIS. I also now know that I have a skin tag...it's actually quite large! I definitely want that gone! Anyway....just wanted to introduce myself as I am laying here on my sofa not moving since this morning!! having missed a class because I couldn't walk around for more than 3 minutes at a time. :( Going for a second opinion tomorrow. :(
