Just when I thought the nasty procedures were over with...

[Misty-Eyed]

.... there was talk today of putting a needle through my vagina!!! This is right after my vaginal ultrasound.

STILL getting discharge through my lady hole and I'm worried it's stopping the hole from that to where my rectum was from healing. They could see some pockets of fluid around the place but are quite deep? Just tired of wearing sanitary towels all the time. Thank goodness I'm a lady, I guess.

Has anyone else had discharge problems seeingly forever since their op too?

Ouch! I have no personal experience but I hope you get some relief soon. That must really suck to have to go through

 

[Entchen]

I'm so sorry for you!

Well I should hope not.

What will the needle do? Do they put you out? I had my urologist put a line up the V and it hurt like hell. The were checking for kidney stones/infection.

Let us know what happens, and hugs!

The needle shall get rid of some of the fluid, I think, so it won't drain out (am I'm guessing may let my hole heal!) She said it would probably fill again but not for a while. I honestly don't care as long as I'm still not draining from wounds/holes!

They won't put me out.. but apparently it doesn't hurt?! Hmm!

On a good note, my ovaries look fine. Not sure why they looked at them!

Hey Misty-Eyed

So sorry to hear that you have to deal with these ongoing issues, I hope that your procedure is short, pain-free and effective.

Good Luck (not that you need it though because you are a super tough lady!)

 

[Terriernut]

Oh Michelle! They say us Crohnies are slow healers but please! (Butt please!!)

I am so sorry you are still going through this. I remember somewhere, someone having a similar problem here. I think they glued it?

As for them saying it wont hurt, perhaps you could try it on them first! Can they use a numbing cream first?

I just want you well. Got your voucher my darlin...Now that they have the heat on!!!!!

 

[Grumbletum]

Ouch! I am crossing my legs just thinking about that particular procedure :-( I sincerely hope it doesn't hurt and gets you some much needed relief x

 

[Misty-Eyed]

Thanks guys. Saw the surgeon's team on Wednesday and they want to see how I get on for the next two months to see if it heals on its own. Fingers crossed!

Fingers and toes all crossed for you!

Fingers, toes, legs etc crossed for you!!!!!!!

Thats the thing about Crohns. Its strips away barriers & enables us to talk about the most personal things imaginable.
Good luck Misty-Eyed hope things heal up for you.
Best Wishes
Grant

Awh honey, big hugs! Hope it heals and they don't have to do anything else. Sending healing/positive thoughts your direction.

 

[Snap]

Needles----bah!

:angry-banghead: Darn it Michelle! So sorry to hear about your healing issue/drainage. I'm going to assume that frequent infections down there aren't an issue? Hopefully not--so keeping my fingers and toes and nose hairs crossed that you heal that thing! Keep your chin up, girl--we're all sending healing vibes to ya! :rosette2: Hugs, Dana

 

[Misty-Eyed]

Thanks guys! I know it was a huge op yadda yadda but you just get to the point where you just want to move on from the whole thing!

No infections luckily, Dana! Just hope it stays that way!

 

[Terriernut]

You ARE so gonna move on from the op Michelle! Patience is a virtue (i dont have it either).

If you get too sick of it...give em the 'spock' eyebrow and make em fix it!!!

Alternatively stick a pin in their 'where the sun dont shine' and see if they get the picture???

 

[Misty-Eyed]

Well hopefully if it's just a case of healing then it should be fixed or at least better in 2 months when I see them again. If not I shall be asking for more tests!

:grr1d: Hey Michelle, one of my friends is a nurse--has been doing surgical gynecology for a million years. When I see her next (it may be about 3 weeks--funny how you get too busy to see a friend--craaaazy) I will ask her what she thinks about your situation. Meanwhile keep healing chicket. Hang tough, Dana

 

[Gav]

Hope it gets a move on and heals for you in the next couple of months!
