Hello All. I am new here, and found this site today. Just this morning, I told my husband I wish there was a forum, and how lucky to find this place.
I have crohn's and my terminal ileum removed in 2003 due to a stricture from the crohns. I have had to have colonoscopies every year, and while no sign of crohns, they just found another stricture. I go in for another test to see what's above the stricture - crohns or scar tissue. Either way I am so worried that I'm not sleeping and can't stop thinking about it. My surgery was extremely difficult just becuase I was so thin by the time I had it that the thought of having another has me worried and scared. Does anyone else out there have a stricture and live okay with it?? :sign0085:
