Been a Whilee..

[scaldwell1992]

Well its been a while since i have been on this forum. But i feel i need to come on here and have another rant. i am so upset atm ive been told i need to have a stoma but deep down im really really scared.
i have many questions i want to ask but to me i think they are really stupid questions when i shouldnt be putting myself down like that.
When i have the stoma they said i will be on a bag for 6-12 months then they will rejoin to the passage but thats only if its Ulcertative Colitis. They dont know if i have UC Or Crohn's. and im really scared that when i have the stoma that im going to be on it for life because they find out i have Crohn's and not UC.
Im so so so so scared. Im 16 years old and i feel like my life is over . please can anyone cheer me up or just talk to me?

I have not had this procedure so I can't give you any advice or info.

I hope it helps you feel better. I was kind of worried about my surgery to remove a stricture, but I am really glad I had it done.

Let us know how it works for you, and good luck!

Hope it works for you bro. When you feel healthier from your UC/Crohns hopefully you will see it differently. Its common to feel like your life is over with chronic illness, but then people actually get better!! good luck and remember you have family.
