It probably won't seem huge to some of the operation people have had on here, but for me it was massive! They basically had to remove part of my small bowel and Large bowel and reattach the healthy parts to get rid of most of the crohn's. I also had a huge mass on the outside of my bowel in the same area, this was causing a lot of pain as it had wrapped itself around all the nerves in my back! Luckily they managed to remove it with no trouble. They also put a stent in through my penis into my ureter to help my right kidney start working properly! Just a road to recovery now! Sorry had to get this all out, i'm so happy i'm finally feeling better
