Hi guys,
Thanks so much for your replies, had a tough last few days....
Own my bum - on movicol (4 sachets a day), lactulose and prunes, lots if water and healthy balanced diet. I've also been taking aloe Vera, zinc, vit c and cod liver. Tried 3 creams including gtn. Oh and on 3rd course of anti biotics aswell as morphine (dr gathered how much pain I was in after fainting from an examination)
The tears started 3 1/2 months and spent the best part of that time in bed....
Thanks also jess and marge. Great to hear something positive about LIS, I'm prepared to go ahead with it, I know it won't be pleasant but I figured that if I'm going to suffer then it might as well be part if the recovery with some light at the end of the tunnel!
Jess funny you should mention sentinel tag as the first doctor mistook this for a pile. I don't know how yours looked but I have 2 small lumps at the back, then a big one at the front (12 position I think). My gp agreed that this big tag may be pulling in the tears either side when having bm?
Feeling a little down today as I chased up CRS appt ..... 4 weeks away! My gp is calling me tomorrow to discuss what can be done as he feels it needs surgery now.
Thanks again for the support guys. My husband and I took the step to tell some close friends and family what has been going on, they were all v supportive, although they were all slightly disappointed as they thought my hibernation and illness excuses was because I was pregnant! Lol xx
