So after almost a year of fissurepain, I've decided to do the surgery in January. It keeps healing, then tearing, healing, tearing.. you know how it goes.
Botox did help for about two months, then it was back to painful BM's again.. And soreness. After the botox stopped working, I've gotten a hemmie(external) that hurts alittle. My CRS says she has to either remove the hemmie(surgery) BEFORE having LIS done, OR put a band on it AND do the LIS at the same time as banding it.
My question is; My hemmie comes and goes, but it shows up mostly when I have to push during a BM. If I dont have to push, it will slowly go away(Usually).
Why cant I get LIS first, then see if the hemmie goes away by itself!? Will it get worse once the internal sphincter muscle is relaxed?
My CRS swears its because the muscles are weak that i get the freakin' hemmie(s)(botox), But I've had hemmies before - they always come during straining on the toilet.. I'm so fed up with all of this. So scared I'm gonna wake up at the hospital in january only to discover they did NOT DO THE LIS. Yes that has happened to me THREE times now.
Hope someone has some answers!
