has anyone had this type of injection done for there fissures in the united states?????

Huh - I wrote the reply below. Then I saw your other post with a link to a more recent paper from Singapore.
I'll have a look at it tonight. My CRS had never heard of gonyautoxin. I imagine it will take a while before it will be approved in the USA (if ever). It's worth keeping an eye on though. Funny - I had given up on gonyautoxin, so it's encouraging to see people still working on it.


Hi Nicholas -
No, I'm afraid not. You've probably come across two studies of gonyautoxin that were done in South America (can't recall which country) a few years ago. I've searched for more updated studies, and found nothing. The project seems to have been dropped. Either funding for the project dried up, or the success rate turned out to be not as good as stated, or unacceptable side-effects emerged - who knows!
Anyway, sadly, this treatment has not worked out, for whatever reason.

Small trials were done in Chile, but do not know if it has been approved in the US. There are a few discussions on the forum about gonyautoxin if you use the search or go to the bottom of this page.

OK, I looked at the paper. It's just a review of previous work, and I've actually read this review before. So, no, there is no new work on gonyautoxin, and it seems this research is at a standstill, at least as far as published data.

Pity, but there it is.
