Thanks Busybird!
I'm going to be super careful. It wasn't full LIS so the chance of it reoccurring are higher. So it'll be loads of veggies, fybogel, movicol, and water for me!
Hey Sue!
I'm so happy about finally having something done. It was just a v small anal dilation. They said that when I was under they would check how tight I was down there and if it was very tight they'd make an incision rather than a dilation. Given my age and gender they wanted to err on the side of caution and I guess they must have wanted to be super cautious. The surgeon said I had to be aware that given how careful he'd been it may well reoccur in future- the success rate of LIS is 97% and I think this would be lower. But I'm happy he was careful to be honest and hope and pray that it just takes this to finally heal me... And I'm so happy he removed that tag, I just can't tell you.
I'm so sorry that you're bad again! But pleased that you've found a good, helpful doctor, it makes all the difference I think. If you see this doc privately, explain your situation (and your problems getting suitable help on the NHS- he'll be familiar with that I'm sure) and ask him if he can refer you back to see him on the NHS.
Have you spoken to your GP about how this is affecting you emotionally? I'm sure if they knew they would refer you to get help on the NHS, regardless of having to wait for a follow up appointment for your botox? You absolutely do not deserve to feel this way, physically or mentally, it's not fair.
