I'm sorry this is an unpleasant topic. I'm not comfortable discussing all of this with my Doc. After seeing 6 Doctors for pain in last two years, who all told me I needed help, most wrote me script for creme or suppository, none of them would perform surgery on me, without explanation, or saying HIV+ people don't heal well, therefore would not perform surgery on me. I am so frustrated with incompetent Doctors & staff, I could write pages about that. Last week, I finally found a Doctor, who could see me almost immediately during a terrible hemorrhage, who was confident I needed surgery & who could do it successfully, the very next day. I am thrilled to have those hideous external & internal + skin tags gone = grown men would run screaming from me if they just felt my ass, & if they saw how ugly it was --- in other words i haven't been fucked for like a year, this had been an issue for many years. I am still in some pain. Anyone with experience with this procedure would be helpful. Anybody know how long the pain will last? Will it look any better? Will be able to get fucked regularly? or will hemorrhoids return or will scar tissue prevent me from getting fucked? Thanks for reading this. J
