Hello all,
I am somewhat of a veteran of this site having had fissures for almost 3 years. I have had botox, fissurotomy, fistulotomy etc and nothing seems to have worked. I had an op a month ago and am in incredible pain again at the moment. I went to my doctor last night and he doesn't think LIS will be offered to me. He said there is a huge risk of incontinence and seemed very negative. I have my follow-up on 7th January and intend to push for LIS then as it seems the only option left to me. I'm only 30 and can't accept that this is it for me and that I have to suffer like this for the rest of my life like my doctor seems to think I will. As you can imagine I feel extremely down and upset about it all and thought the positive thing I can do now is research the LIS and get others experience to help me make my decision. Also to help me persuade the CRS to to the operation. Any advice/help/experience would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
