cheryl i'm sorry for what happened to your mom, but glad they could help her...my grandma had a hysterectomy in her older age, after she'd had all her kids. i'm sooo glad i didn't have to have a hysterectomy. i can still hopefully have kids with one ovary.
i wish the anal problems were just scar tissue but the drs all still see a fissure...and it still feels the same as it always has so i know it's still there. i think the skin down there might be irreversibly damaged from all the creams, surgeries, amount of time i've had the fissure, etc...it sucks. i've got a few appts with new drs coming up next month, unfortunately i had to delay some of them b/c of this surgery.
