Suzy -
I hope your feeling less blue today. Our butts make us all feel like that from time to time.
To answer your question, yes I have had retares. I have had 2-3 of them since August. I healed from them in one or two days. My butt is about 90% better. I hope with time, it will be 100%. I think these things take so long to heal. I plan to take the benefiber for the rest of my life as well.
There are a couple of us who still have spasms like you do. I actually never knew I had spasms until AFTER I had LIS, once I did not have them, I thought "Oh, thats what those were!". Mine were never horrifically painful. I would have a dull ache all day and somtimes a stabbing pain. I still get them occassionally, but very rarely. Today I had a dull ache type spasm that was really annoying, but it is gone tonight, and I hope it won't be back for a long time.
