I had my 6 week follow up with my surgeon from my December anal abscess drainage/fistulotomy today. He said I am 90% healed up. Hurray! I feel so much better. Little to no pain any more except the occasional pressure that comes with having an unhooked rectal stump. Biopsies were negative for dysplasia but did show inflammation (no surprise there).

If I go my entire life without having another one of these abscesses it won't be long enough. I don't know how you guys that fight with them all the time do it.
