Well as promised, I came back to update on my progress :)
Basically I saw my CRS again 9 weeks post-op and he told me that I am great and that everything has healed! He even told me I don't need to do Sitz baths anymore but that is probably because he saw that my bottom was already almost black :(
Now the problem is I am still experiencing significant discomfort when I am lying in bed on my back (with the laptop of course). Also, when I sometimes sit for a prolong period of time I also experience discomfort. It is hard to describe, basically tightness with and occasionally painful pang.
Fortunately I have no pain during bowel movements or when i do light exercise.
I am not sure what to think anymore, I am hoping one day to be 100% like before! I have no idea what could be causing my discomfort?
Ps. For those still considering surgery, like I said the surgery itself was literally nothing for me and I never had any incontinence :)! I don't know yet if we ever get to 100% as before the surgery, but I would do it again in a heartbeat!
Living with an active fissure for years, pftttt that is just crazy :)!
