hi

I need to see what you think 

A little History

I am 51 and had this sinus fissure sense I was 17

when surgeons removed a fatty tumor near the bottom of the spine and 

the site didnt  close good got infected and has been a litteral pain in 

the a(&() 

Yes I had surgery and other things, but it doesnt go away and stays 

inactive for about  years and breaks open, Well this time it broke open 

on the inside for the first time.

SO now my dr says colonospy to rule out other things and see if he can 

see it. They say as long as it is draining it is ok

But this drainage scares me.

It was stopping till i sat on a heatng pad

do i want to keep it open, so continue with the heating pad?

is there any thing I can do to make it better?

Will this test on thursday make things worse?

any ideas

sandi

It sounds more like an abcess than a fissure. And now

the abcess has fistulized or tunneled to the inside.

You need it to drain, the heating pad probably drew

the pus to the surface. If kept inside it tunnels to

somewhere else to get out - like the colon, bladder,


vagina. Colonoscopy shouldn't make it worse and the

best way for them to see what is going on inside. The

clean out before the test is unpleasant and many

suggest eating less a few days before so there is less

to clean out. Make sure when you are on liquids and

jello, none of them are red. Be prepared to spend much

time in bathroom(reading material, word puzzles etc).

Have water to wet the TP or buy flushable wipes. Have

vaseline or lanolin or zinc oxide product to help

things not get too sore. Hope this helps! Janet

I realised the reply I sent you didn't have subject

heading because yours didn't! So the one about abcess

is for you! It helps if you put something in subject

area so you know which replys are for you. Janet
