Yeah, finding the right mix is tough -- like trying to stack a deck of cards. Mess one thing up and you pay for it. There's just so many variables.
I'm actually going to increase to 400mg a day -- my poo is softer now, but still getting some hard ones.

Urghhh..so I've had a solid 2 weeks no pain what so ever. Thought I was well on my way to complete healing. Then the last couple of days, everything has falling apart.
The pain of BM has returned, but not as bad as before. I'm not having the spasms either. So it looks like I am experiencing one of the AF trademark setbacks. :(
I'm going to take some of blame on this one. I have been working alot of hours and sitting on my butt WAY too much.
Back on the colace and praying this setback will only last a week.

Try to stay off your arse this weekend as much as you can, Ed. Eat soft cooked veggies...you know the drill. If you can get back on track, you may yet heal. I think you will !!

Keep on, keeping on! I know it is hard though. What helps is to keep on acting like you have a fissure after it feels better to prevent it from coming back.
Hang in there!

Just went and got it checked out. Dr. says it doesn't look too bad. No bleeding, just a little pink.
Hoping 4-5 days it will be better
I have a business trip to Arizona in a couple of weeks.....
Screw you AF, I hate you!!!!!
