It's Been a While...

[Ataraxia]

Since I made an appearance on this forum. I've had a lot of issues (as everyone does here) with health, and other people.

I'm feeling pretty good, physically and mentally, though, I must admit. I'm Ileostomy-free (and have been for nearly two years now) and I've even matched to hook up with a lovely female partner who tries her best to understand my illness and look after me.

I thought I'd pop in her to see how everyone else is doing, and provide as much advice as I am capable of. I feel pretty bad about not dropping in more often before, So I'ma try and make up for that now.

So how's everyone else doing? Still soldiering on?

Hi Andy and welcome back!

Glad you are feeling pretty good these days and found someone to help keep you healthy!

What have you been doing to manage your disease? Are you on meds, or just clean livin'?

No meds at the min. I was originally on strong pain killers, but they weren't helping much at all really, to be honest, so I just soldier on.

Going to the toilet at least eight times a day has become the norm for me now, I guess. I also find that I struggle with Parcopresis (the inability to defecate when there is people around), which certainly doesn't make my life any easier, but I get on with it. I have to.

How about you?
