ANAL FISTULA- FISSURE _{Page 83 of 195}

Hi Raj,

'Though there is slight itching I am controlling not to scratch or squeeze also didn't squeeze this morning after BM intentionally.'

Wonderful!!!!

Please never squeeze OR use needle as it impacts the repairing efforts. One must use remedies such as Ratanhia and Calendula to control pain, infection, itching and other issues.

In my opinion, surgery is not the answer. It is a temporary fix. Anal fistula(s) will reappear later.

Is your MRI scan the recent one? Any thing there regarding your piles?

With more prayers.

Regards
Nawaz

Thanks, Nawaaz. Yes, my MRI is 6 months old and nothing mentioned about Piles. Maye be the prescription was just for Fistula ?

Raj

Dear Nawaaz,

I will take Thuja tonight. But what should I take from tomorrow onwards ? Please let me know.

THanks
Raj

Dear Raj,

Please take Thuja 200C, half a glass of water, pour 4 drops into the glass, stir it nicely with spoon, then, drink it.

No remedies tomorrow at all.

May God bless you.

Regards
Nawaz

Dear Nawaaz,

Today not much of itching in the Fistula. But later in the day after PM I started feeling slight itching and the pressure on that area as there is oozing and something get filled up there.

As I did not ssqueeze / scratch, nothing drained yet. I have to wait for that to drain by itself.

THanks
raj

In My previous post, I meant after 6 PM.

Thanks
raj

Dear Nawaz,
You will be glad to know that I have not been using a needle for the fistula for the past two days. However, the area has been gradually increasing in size - with absolutely no drainage - so much so that this morning I awoke and felt so nauseous with it as it is about the size of 1-1.5 inches 'mound' sticking out when I am seated or standing. It is soft but filled with liquid. I unfortunately used a needle very gently as the nausea was making me feel shaky and the lump very very uncomfortable (but no fever or pain - only great discomfort when sitting down). Lots and lots came out - firstly pale brown pus then liquid yellow. There is still lots more in there but I have stopped trying to drain it as don't want to aggravate it as you have mentioned to me and others on the forum.I am still feeling nauseous and shaky though.

Quick summary for you:
I took Thuja 1M 3 doses on thursday evening last week. Been taking Calc Sulph 12x twice daily for 5 days now and Nat Sulph 6x three times a day for 5 days. Took my 3rd (of 5) dose of Merc Sol 200c this morning and I have been taking calendula 30c now for three days.

My bowels are very sluggish and tight again so bowel movements are very difficult - for the past two days again. I took the Nat Phos 6x as you suggested after dinner last night. No effect as yet.

Should I order the Myr Seb 200c (liquid) - the surgeons knife! - to help with the drainage?I have used Myr Seb 30c (liquid) before but it had no effect. Maybe too low a potency?

Many thanks Nawaz and my best wishes,
Chispas

Hi Chispas,

Thanks a bundle for almost stopping the damaging use of needle. I fully understand the timely need and really sympathies with you.

Considering your new symptoms, I would like to request you to do the following.

1. Please stop taking Calc Sulph 12X and Merc Sol 200C immediately for the time being.

2. You will start taking

Silicea 6C, 4 tablets under your tongue, 3 times a day, for 1 week. Then, we will see the adjustment later next week. I know you have this remedy with you. Therefore, you may start immediately.

3. Continue with other remedies as usual.

4. Nat Phos 6X, please take at least 5 tablets after each meal.

Please go ahead and order Myristica Seb. 200C and also since you are going to place an order, then, order Silicea 200C too as we are going to need this remedy down the road for healing.

I am sure, the above will work to correct your nauseous, constipated and shaky condition.

Lastly, you are more than welcome and always remember that you are a brave and very nice lady. May God bless you?

Many many prayers for your comfort soon.

Regards
Nawaz

Dear Nawaz,
Thank you for the prompt reply! |Shall I order the liquid extract form of Myr Seb 200c and Silica 200c and also shall I order Sulphur 200c (liquid or tablet) as you mentioned I may need that at some point. Or wait on this last one?

I shall do as you say with the silica 6c and continue with Nat Phos 6x, Nat Sulph 6x and Calendula 30c.

I'll let you know progress in a few days and when i receive the remedies to find out how to take them and when etc!

We have heavy snow here in the UK - most unseasonal. What is it like in Georgia at the moment?
Many thanks and blessings
Chispas

Hey Raj,

Just a reminder, please no remedies today at all, if you took Thuja 200C last night?

You may post your condition in detail this evening your time.

Again, may The God Almighty bless you with good health soon?

Regards
Nawaz

Dear Chispas,

You are more than welcome.

Yes, please order in the liquid form including Sulphur 200C. Proactive, very nice! Also, Ipecacuanha 30C, you may keep at home.

Please stay warm, enjoy the snow from window.

It is pretty cold and windy here in Atlanta. We get a very little snow around Christmas time, but, we got a small tornado last night with heavy rain.

Many many prayers for you.

Regards
Nawaz

Dear Nawaaz,

Yes, I did take Thuja last night. Nothing drained until this morning. When I touched the side of Fistula to see how big the oozing is, its just started draining. The PUS was thick and pale yellow in color followed by few drops of blood. The PUS could be 3 - 4 drops.

I started feeling the Pain in the morning before drained. I did not squeeze yet. The itching is controlled very much though there is little.

I am not taking any medicine today.

Thanks
Raj

Thanks for the good report Raj,

Please also update me in the evening your time with details including your state of mind.

No squeezing, pl. let it drain by itself.

Many many prayers for you.

Regards
Nawaz

Hi Nawaz

I received Berberis Vulgaris Q and Mezereum 200C (for niece) today.

My itching is less (though I haven't taken Urtica Urens 30C yet).

Please advise if I should start with Berberis Vulgaris Q dose.

Thanks !

Hi AbFisRidden,

Please take Urtica Urens 30C for itching as suggested.

You may start taking all remedies as indicated for you on daily basis along with Berberis Vulgaris Q.
How is your fistula condition now, please give details?

Many many prayers for you and your niece.

Regards
Nawaz

Hi Nawaz

Fistula condition seems better. Pus drainage appears to be less and haven't noticed blood after BM for past 2-3 days.

Should I continue with Nat Sulp 6X, Merc Sol 200C and Berb Vulg Q drops for next10 days ?

Thanks for all your help !

Dear Nawaaz,

Please find my states as requested :

- Fistula itching is very less.

- Fistula pain is very less as well.

- I feel very relaxed and calm the whole day today.

- Fistula is swelled a little and its still there.

- A little amount of PUS drained by itself in the afternoon.

- I feel kind of fresh with the regular routine itself.

Please let me know what should be my medicine from tomorrow onwards.

Thanks
Raj

Dear AbFisRidden,

Please continue with the remedies as suggested and as you are indicating.

May God bless you?

Regards
Nawaz

Dear Raj,

Thanks for the update.

Tomorrow, please take

Paeonia 30C, 4 drops in 2 sips of water, 3 times only, only for 1 day.

No other remedies tomorrow please.

A bundle of prayers for you.

Regards
Nawaz

Thank you, Nawaaz. Sure, I will take Paeonia 30C tomorrow and let you know the updates.

Thanks
Raj

Dear Nawaz,

The remedies I ordered will be arriving tomorrow (Myr Seb 200c, Silicea 200c, Sulphur 200c, Ipecacuahna 30c).
I started the silicea 6c yesterday and have had 3 doses up to now. I still feel nauseous and constipation still bad and fistula filling up profusely but not discharging and quite sore so I am using the needle again. (Sorry!).
When the meds arrive tommorow shall I start the Myr Seb 200c to help with discharge? If so how shall I take it please?

Thank you!
Chispas

Hi Chispas,

Not a problem about needle. We have to do what we have to do? These hard times will pass soon.

A couple of Q's for you.

1. Please explain your nauseous condition in detail?

2. Why is there a lot of moisture in the anal area, in your best judgement?

Sorry some more Q's.

What are you eating specifically? I know you take a lot of fiber (please explain what you take?), veg's (please explain what you take?) and fruits (please explain what you take?). Are your cooked meals contain a lot of water, potatoes, cauliflower, peas, rice and spices (curry with water)?

How is your gas? Please explain in detail.

How close are you from ocean?

Again, there is a lot of unusual snow over there. May God bless you.

How much fried food you take such as indian fried dishes and Sambosa's/Pakora's?

How many glasses of water you take per day?

How is your sleep? Any dreams, please describe in detail?

Please don't worry, you will be OK.

Many many prayers for you.

Regards
Nawaz

Dear Nawaz,
Nice change for you to ask me questions so no problem!
1) Nauseous condition - feeling not quite right - ie sickly feeling since started with Merc Sol. It has worn off a bit today but no real appetite at all although I am eating. I think the nausea is related to the Merc sol and the fisutla filling up so much and tiring me.
2)There is no moisture in the anal sphincter or surrounding area - it is all within the fistula. No idea why there is so much liquid in it. Not much help for you, sorry! But seems to fill up regardless of whether there is any faeces or not in the bowel. Today faeces are very small and hard and only come out if I insert my finger to get them out - sorry to be so graphic!

Food I eat: e.g. for breakfast I have a probiotic drink - made with organic milk (called Kefir - using spores which digest the milk and produce healthy gut bacteria - been taking this since typhoid last year and really helped my bowels settle initially and I find when I stop taking it my bowels get even worse.) and some fruit, e.g. pear/apple then some oat bread (made with oats only - I make myself - no yeast) with some omega oils (hemp, pumpkin etc) and pure fruit jam or peanut butter or tahini. Or if not oat bread have brown rice crackers (100% brown rice). Lunch is sandwich with oat bread or wheat crackers with nut spread and fruit e.g apples and banana. Dinner is e.g. steamed or raw veg - e.g. broccoli, carrot, tomato, sweet corn, red/yellow peppers - with boiled or poached egg sometimes or Quorn - a meat substitute - or cheese (which I have reduced) or nuts. No spices at all in my diet as aggravates the fistula so a very bland diet. Dinner followed by soya yoghurt and dried fruit and nuts. Maybe a slice of brown bread later with nut butter on if hungry.
Thats a rough idea of what I eat.

I drink lots of water - a pint of warm water on rising and a pint after exercise in the morning and then frequent glasses throughout the day plus hot drinks of coffee substitue or decaff tea. I do drink water with meals sometimes but know this is bad for digestion if drink too much.

I don't get much gas - occasional gurglings in my guts but that is it.
I live about 50 miles from the ocean.
I have no fried food - don't eat any indian type food as again avoiding the spices and don't really like fried food. (e.g. chips etc). Don't eat potatoes at all really as not keen on them.

In my sleep I always always dream of travelling - I am never permanently in one place - always only staying somewhere temporarily. e.g student house, hostel, hotel or staying with someone - never my own place on my own - always just passing through.

I have travelled a lot in my life and do enjoy it so maybe why I have the dreams like that but also I am currently living at my parents (for past two years since getting fistula) so not got my own place which may also explain the dreams.

I also do have the constant anxiety - which is in my dreams also - fear of putting on weight - making me an exercise addict somewhat and also watching what I eat. That srtops me from resting as get too anxious about it so it is easier to not rest sometimes as reduces the anxiety. But as a therapist myself I am working on this.

Hope that is enough information. Please let me know what you think and what to do with the remedies arriving tomorrow!
Many thanks as always for your kindness and patience.

Hi there Chispas,

Thanks for the meaningful reply. This is very helpful. Let's take one thing at a time.

'1) Nauseous condition - feeling not quite right - ie sickly feeling since started with Merc Sol. It has worn off a bit today but no real appetite at all although I am eating. I think the nausea is related to the Merc sol and the fisutla filling up so much and tiring me.'

Wrong, Not Merc Sol., it has something to do with Calc Sulph.

'2)There is no moisture in the anal sphincter or surrounding area - it is all within the fistula. No idea why there is so much liquid in it. Not much help for you, sorry! But seems to fill up regardless of whether there is any faeces or not in the bowel. Today faeces are very small and hard and only come out if I insert my finger to get them out - sorry to be so graphic'

Very good answer and a very good sign by the working of remedies. You have a lot of moisture inside your body that forms a lot of pus.

Anyway, we can spend many hours on this, but, in my opinion, your food contains a lot of water (veg's, fruits grown in sea areas).

It is going to be hard to make changes in your habits and diet that you have been taking for a long time now. But, if you consider to heal fistula ASAP, then, you may try to change your diet and other things?

All I can do is recommend to cure your disease.

1. Please stop or cut down on the milk and yogurt products as they help in producing more pus.

2. Eat a good breakfast, 2 fried eggs with a couple of slices and fried potatoes or mashed potatoes with black pepper. You are strongly recommended to make indian pratha's or bread with butter. Then, drink a cup of tea. No coffee please even decaffe.

3. Enjoy a good lunch with fried fish and chips (if you can take fish), otherwise, you may take cooked lentils with a very little water (fried) and with mild spices. Also take a couple of indian breads (Chapati). Please cut down on the vegetables and fruits for the time being. You must not worry about the cholesterol etc. at this time. No problem at all.

3. For snacks, you are to take fried Samosa's/Pakora's, home cooked with mild spices.

4. For dinner, a small, the most enjoyable dinner around 7:00PM with mild spicy dish containing no water. You must take dinner roles or wheat bread.

5. You may drink a warm glass of milk with a spoonful of sugar after dinner. This will help your constipation.

6. I would like to srtongly recommend not to worry about the weight gain at all. Please don't run or heavy workout. Just walk very nicely with full enjoyment as much you can!!!

Regarding the remedies, please take a dose of Sulphur 200C when you get the remedies tomorrow. Then, at night, before going to sleep, at least 45 minutes after dinner, please take a dose of Myristica Seb. 200C.

For nausea, you may take a dose of Ipecacuahna 30C as needed.

As usual a dose is 4 drops in 2 sips of water. If in pellets, then, 4 pellets under your tongue?

Good Luck to you and with more prayers.

Regards
Nawaz

Dear Nawaz,
Thank you for all your advice and kind reassuring words.
I have followed a diet very similar to your suggested regime for 3 months last year when in India - it did not affect things at all - still profuse discharge - but I shall try here at home in the UK - I will be very very careful with the spices though as that really truly aggravated things and when I have had anything spicy since in the UK - even a bit of curcumin it has been agony!

But I am willing to try and will follow your very good advice and trust in your learned knowledge and experience! The diet is similar to the Ayurvedic Vata pacifying diet isn't it.

I will take the Sulphur and Myr Seb as you prescribe tomorrow when they arrive.

One final question please, do I take all the other remedies as well tomorrow (ie nat sulph 6c, silicea 6c, calendula 30c, and Nat phos 6x ) or rest from them for a day and start again on saturday. I presume I do not take the sulphur or Myr seb again for a few days or do I take them again the next day - ie. saturday? Oops that is two questions!

No more snow today and a thaw is on the way! Hopefully no more tornados for you either.
Thank you again for your lovely kind words and reassurance.
My best wishes,
Chispas

Dear Chispas,

Please try to understand that our objective is to drain, dry and close your fistula. The food suggestions are only my recommendations, you really don't have to follow as in no way I would like to see you uncomfortable and unhappy. You must enjoy your life with the food you like that feels delicious and comforting.

No, I don't have a clue about Ayurvedic Vata pacifying diet???

But, I am sure, since you are in UK, not in India, my suggested food package will work reducing your moisture in the body and help in the healing process.

Yes, please continue with the other remedies as you have stated. I hope this is a typo.,Nat Sulph 6X not Nat Sulph 6C.

You are requested to take Sulphur 200C and Myristica Seb. 200C only once tomorrow, then, we will evaluate in a couple of days.

How many times are you taking Nat Phos 6X and how many tablets?

Thanks a bundle for your nice thoughts and hopes of no more tornadoes here. Yes, there were none.

May God bless you?

Regards
Nawaz
