Great thank you so much for your update. I'm so pleased to hear things are still good. It's nice to read about on here what looks likely to be happy ending :)
Thanks for prices. I read on another post it was around $35,000 which would have been far too much for me to find. I'm going to persevere with trying things I have yet for now and in the mean time research the best I can so if I opt for surgery (or Feingold's non-surgery approach) I can go into it fully aware of what's what.
That's really interesting what you've said about fibre. I've recently heard that it's insolible fibre that can do an AF harm and that we need to seek out foods higher in soluble fibre. Up until now I've not given my diet much thought as it doesn't seem massively affected by what I eat. However currently going through a very bad episode with a fissure has made me think about it. In fact I'm currently nervous about eating anything as I know it's got to come out. I know that probably the worst thing I can do for keeping BM manageable is not eat though, so trying to nibble on thing here and there.
Again, thank you for your response and I shall eagerly await the next progress report. I sincerely hope you make a good and full recovery :)
