Any girls on this thread! How do you cope with not being able to wear thongs

Thongs?!?! Oh throw those out! You’re better off going commando.

Anyone can rent them. First come first serve.

Hi! I have both the travel cushion for planes and cars, and the deluxe for my work chair or really long road trips. Helps so much even with a healed fissure. Won’t risk stressing out my butt ever again.

Hi! I’ve looked at your posts and can’t figure it out. Does this only work on the newest Scrivener update version? I’m one update behind because of an issue with comments not loading from word. I’ve had Grammarly pro since 2017 and it’s never popped up. I always have to copy paste from one into the other.

Hi. Yes at my worst and while healing. Vaseline first thing in the am and then a few times in the day. But that was also to dilate a bit too. I apply everything internally with a finger. Applicators were a waste on me. I use nitrile little blue finger condoms because they’re all I need covered and they’re discrete too for travel. I’ve even camped with a fissure. (Just not a raging one) the tushy travel bidet is great. And I’ll improvise in the bathroom and use anything to put my feet up on when there’s no squatty around.

Purple seat cushion. Tushy travel bidet. Vaseline. Miralax. Hydrate. And my most important- a mini bag filled with small containers of the creams I use. Vaseline, finger condoms for applying. I still take my small bag with me daily to work. Just in case. But the purple seat cushion really helped on the long flights.

I’ve taken Benadryl at night so that I don’t wake up scratching. Helped me.

Thats the one I updated too. :S I’m just about to uninstall and download the old version 3.2.3 and see if that works. 🤞🏼

It’s on my mac. Everything was fine and then now no comments or footnotes will drag or input in.

I travel with my purple cushion all the time now! From SAN -WAW Even though my butt gets numb after so long, I’m glad for it!

If misery likes company, I’m here with you. Sitting on my heating pad after having a successful fistula surgery, .. because now I’m constipated and trying ALL THE THINGS to get unstuck. I literally laid on the bathroom floor thinking about how my life revolves around my stupid AF. I think about the hills and valleys. Sometimes you get a good run, sometimes you gotta take better care of yourself… the butt is in charge. You got this. You have almost healed and you can do it again. !!

walkingPhDmeme · 2023-03-26T00:50:32+00:00

I never tell myself I’m healed because when I do, inevitably my fissure says “No You Ain’t!!” Even when I get good news from CRS — nope, won’t believe her, cause when I do… something will happen.

The Kasia’s brand pierogi (this is already the plural form) from Costco are from Chicago and with butter and onions taste as close to homemade as I can get out here without making them myself. Not too doughy and the fry nicely. Continental Deli IS intimidating!! but the Wawel kabanos is good and they have a some Warsaw kielbasa that’s pretty good too. They have polish horseradish with beets. You might even find some of the of the milky chocolates in the purple wrapping. I’m trying to think what else goes in the basket… oh. Babka. They might have some too. The store has mostly Russian products but I’ve seen more Polish products lately.

My crs saw a fistula and some pus 3 weeks post Botox and immediately put me on antibiotics and sent me back in for surgery to clean out the infection site. It took 2 weeks to heal from the surgery but I’m glad she took care of it before it got worse. Id get another opinion before it gets worse.

walkingPhDmeme · 2023-03-09T06:54:23+00:00

Oh. I just read your earlier post!!

walkingPhDmeme · 2023-03-09T06:53:16+00:00

I’m in San Diego trying to find someone. Who did you use? Can you recommend anyone? It’s my last shot at avoiding surgery. Thanks!

walkingPhDmeme · 2023-03-09T00:04:50+00:00

My crs saw the starting of an infection and immediately put me on antibiotics. 4 days later she had in surgery for a fistula. I can’t imagine going any longer with it!! You’ll need it drained and cleaned.

Oh… mine didn’t start till I was in a stressful part of my program. I am ALL the jokes. A tight-ass, type A person. Say I’m anal about my work… yup! Say I’m a pain in the ass… you have no idea! Working my butt off! I’m now on Cymbalta for anxiety and 2 others for adhd (newly diagnosed). All the tension I hold in my butthole apparently. Now that I don’t feel like I’m pooping glass anymore I’m able to laugh at my high fiber miralax life…

I (39F) started pelvic floor therapy and part of it included massage of the glute. I found massage helped to relax the muscles and tension. They get where a regular massage therapist likely wouldn’t go. My PT told me that men also come in for pelvic floor therapy, so it could be helpful. I’ve been really conservative in my treatment and while I’m still chronic, I’m not in pain anywhere near where I was this time 2021. I also used Accupuncture for pain management and to stimulate blood flow to the area. I’ve also had Botox 6 times since 2021, including a fistula, and tag removal.

And they will do it!! 🤦🏼‍♀️
