Yes, but man I am so Tired. 2nd one in two years. They said not enough to warrant a surgery. They also say Pentasa, etc dissolves by the time it reaches certain areas of the intestines.

How are you feeling now?

Is Pentasa the only medication you're on for your IBD?

Lets just say i am far from looking like that in my profile pic, but it will take me 2 months get it all back

I came out on Friday after 4 days in, I know how you feel. Hope you all feel better soon. Sometimes I think the meds knock us round more than the disease.

So true, I hope you are feeling better as well.

I feel ya! I just had a 5 day stay as well. And had just been in last October 2013 for 4 days. I have many fistulas and connections between my small and large intestines as well as colon that inflamed my colon and rectum. While in the hospital, I consulted a colon-rectal surgeon about the fistulas and hoping that surgery will not have to happen.

Returned home from a 5 day hospital stay for obstruction a week ago. Still not feeling 100 percent, fatigue and some pain. How long did it take you to recover?

It took my 3 days, but the hospital made me stay 4.
You will feel fatigue for a week after. You should not have pain though.

weird i have been out of the hospital more than a week but still have fatigue, some pain and nausea. i also had an infection, with the obstruction so maybe that is why i am still recovering. my doctor said that none of my symptoms were unusual that i should watch for extreme bloating and fever. i have another follow up on monday so we will see. also my body may have needed the rest - running on 0 before this attack.

Yes, I have never had an infection with an obstruction. I have been blessed. Rest always help and low residue diet

 

[mmac]

thanks, resting and following low fiber/low residue diet.
