Each evening we stayed hunkered in our cabin barricaded by garlic garlands, the monster outside wheezing in despair, "Invite me in and give me back my children you evil hag!"
I had a anal fissure for the longest time (1yr+) that turned into a fistula. It's been a week since my surgery. I don't think it was too invasive and complex, they simply made an incision and did the drainage.
The issue is however I have constipation from the surgery afterwards. I drink tonnes of water. I take in loads of fiber and still it's not going away. I'm even having stool softeners/laxatives as prescribed.
In my follow up my doctor said to just increase water and fiber intake but what else can I do?
At this point I have serious concerns that some medicine is causing me this. I'm already done with the antibiotics course and have some auxiliary meds for some time which I think I will stop.
I have already stopped my antipsychotics out of sheer fear. Not sure what I can do at this point and I'm scared of this not healing.
Has anyone faced this? Is there anything I can do to get better?
"Don't worry, I know how you like gore and other things" she winks as she breaks the key and slashes her throat ear to ear to appease only me.
