So I am 4 weeks into 2 incredibly painful anal fissures and I am already severely depressed and always dreading my next BM. It is literally ruining my life and I feel it's not even worth living sometimes.. this is the single most painful and longest lasting experience of my life. That being said, I'm 26 yo male and am trying everything I can to muster up every last bit of hope to stay positive. So i'm currently working on my diet and it seems very contradictory that I can't have too much fiber or it will have the opposite effect on my stool. Can you all share what you eat daily? how much fiber is too much? Also, I have some opiates and Valium but I am petrified to take (or eat) anything that might be a risk for hard stool or constipation. Ironically, this is the one time that I feel I really need these meds. I would appreciate any feedback on these issues. Thank you!
