Hi everyone,
I am one week away from my LIS/fissurectomy and am starting to freak out more. I will probably end up starting a diary in the diary section to chronicle my thoughts and experiences. I'm starting to worry a lot and am already having some trouble sleeping with various nightmares. I know this will be best for me, but the fear is still there, nonetheless, especially of how painful recovery will be. I had three decent days this week, which was good, but then the pain came back yesterday and I know the fissure will not heal without help, so this is the road I have to choose to hopefully get my life back.
Right now I'm more freaked out about the magnesium citrate prep the night before and how painful that's going to be for the fissure. : ( But at least I don't have to do the enema per my CRS's instructions.
Any extra tips/advice would be greatly appreciated. Extra thoughts and prayers help so much, too. : ) Best wishes to everyone going through this. I will keep everyone updated, either on this post or in a new diary post.
