Botox injection in 3 hours
Hi fellow suffers
I am 3 hours away from getting Botox injected into me. I can’t wait honestly. This fissure has been the pain of my existence ! 3 weeks of straight pain especially after a BM.
They gave me nipdfine ointment with lidocaine but it has done nothing for the pain. I have been taking a capsule of Miralax in the evening and 300 mg of mag citrate to ensure that my BM is soft. The bleeding has stopped but the pain is terrible. Like I am pretty good with pain but wow this pain is terrible to the point where I can’t walk or sit.
They will be putting me under and administer the shots. Hopefully this will make the pain go away and let this fissure heal in the coming months.
Update 1. 1 hour after Botox
Well I am at of the procedure and heading home. Pain right now is less than this morning before the Botox. I have to come back in 2 weeks and do a procedure called fissurerectomy because my issue is deep.
Update 2.
5 hours since the procedure and so far so good. Pain is about a 1/10. I haven’t had a BM since the morning. I will update again once I have a BM in the morning. I took Miralax one capsule and 300 mg of Mag Citrate with a probiotic wi the dinner.
Update 3. Woke up the next day and had a BM. It was an easy passing. Soft. A bit of blood in the stool. I am guessing it’s from the injection sites. But 10 minutes after the BM mild pain like a 2 or 3 out of 10. Nothing like yesterday where the pain was terrible. Couldn’t walk or sit without being in so much pain.
Keep in mind I do take 300 mg of mag citrate in the morning with food and a probiotic and in the evening a capsule of Miralax.
As the day went on, I took just one Advil. The pain went from 2 or 3 to about a 6. Again nothing too bad comparing it to yesterday’s nightmare.
Day 2 is coming to a close. Discomfort on average went from 1 to a max of 5 with one tablet of Advil. Overall better than yesterday before the Botox shots. Let’s see what tomorrow will bring.
Day 3. Had a BM in the morning and hardly any pain during but after the pain spiked to at least a 9 out of 10. Took an Advil to hopefully bring down the pain. Let’s see how the rest of the day goes.
Day 4. Had a BM in the evening couldn’t go in the morning due to work. There was a streak of blood on the stool. Pain during the BM was about a 5/10. Pain after was like a 4/10. But it’s slowly subsiding. Before the pain would be like 20/10 and me not being able to do anything but be in pain. No Advil or Tylenol. Just digestive enzymes/mag citrate and Miralax.
