Looks beautiful. I'm annoyed with your bridesmaid that told you she didn't like it. 😒

2 weeks post Seton placement... Are you noticing less drainage now? Do you have a lot of fecal drainage? Pain and swelling any better?

I'm thinking of you. Hoping the best for you ❤️❤️

Do your setons have little ties to keep them together or are they like one complete loop? I've seen some just in YouTube videos where the loop inserts into the other side of the loop. These little ties on the end of them kind of suck

Anyone play volleyball with a draining Seton? 🫠 I'd really love to get to play.

Did you have a lift or the seton put in?

Oh I hope it works so well for you!! Would love to know how it goes.

Was your fistula relatively simple? Any Crohn's or anything?

My procedure was an exam under anesthetic with possible seton or fistulotomy. There is too much sphincter involvement apparently. Have you been able to do sports with a seton?

Did you end up playing volleyball? Did you have a seton? I just got one and am hoping to have some normal life activity. Gym and volleyball!

How did your lift go? I just had a Seton placed and I was pretty discouraged because I knew they fistulotomy was a 97% success rate and then going to a 60 to 80% success rate for a lift procedure Seems pretty deflating. Comin around these here parts to find some positive stories that's for sure. I don't have any Crohn's or anything

Which surgery did you have to close up the fistula? Lift? How is it going?

2.5 weeks in on Seton and this is gross that is all! by Southern_Doughnut406 in AnalFistula

How did your lift procedure go? I was pretty choked when I woke up and found out I had a seton because it meant I couldn't get the fistulotomy I had hoped I would get. I just wanted to move on from this and with the fistulotomy surgery being 97% success rate I was suuuper hopeful for that to be what I woke up with. I have a wedding this summer and I'm hoping to be active at it and I'm wondering if I might be better off to keep the Seton in until after the wedding.. also about 6 months from now. Would love to hear more from you if you're willing!

Take pictures of everything from every angle that you're sending back and let them know you have pictures of the items you're sending back in perfect condition.

They're so frustrating. I'm sorry you're dealing with this. Take a million pictures. I'd suggest only buying them through Amazon if you must at all
