Hey guys, it seems that over the last week or so, my fistula has been draining more than it usually does. For the past 2+ years I've had it, I've never really had a lot of problems with it (drainage wise) but it seems lately its been draining so much that I don't even want to leave the house incase it reaches the shorts. I can't even sit down on my couch for 10 minutes without getting up and my underwear being soaked in that spot.
Its like thick, sticky stuff, but when I look at my fistula I can't find anywhere that it could be coming from. I have to wear pads 24/7 to try and avoid embarrassment when sitting down.
Could it be a reaction of something I've ate? And would it still be there after over a week? I did drink milk sometime last week with my protein shake, but physically, and health wise, I do feel perfectly fine.
Would it be wise to start taking prednisone again for a little to see if anything gets better? I'm starting college in September and really don't want to have to deal with this embarrassment.
Thanks a lot guys.
