I've heard a few members say they could handle even a little hard poop after healing, but it'd be nice for reference to know how many of you can eat reasonably normal when you're at your best? I mainly ask because I used to eat healthful things that had a little more fiber in them, meats, etc, and I do miss them.
My issue was never constipation, I just ate so much so soon one time and strained like mad the next morning that I had a minor fissure. I didn't take care of it, then did something similar minus the straining at the advice of my doctor, and opened up an even worse one!
Will I ever be able to eat fiberous things again, or beef, or yogurt? My fissure is healing, but anything but liquid stool can still upset it. It's like my anus can't really dilate at all anymore, and I worry that the long term consequences of eating to please it might be bad too.
