So pleased to have found you all and know i'm not alone

Hi Everyone.
I have been reading lots of peoples stories and all i can say is wow. I was diagnosed in 2010, i have crohns in my ileum and back passage. I have two abscess and fistulas and have two seton drains. These things have become my life since i have been diagnosed. Ive felt very alone for a long time as i haven't met or spoken to anyone who has them so this forum is an absolute blessing to me. I find it very difficult to talk to my friends, family and more importantly my boyfriend about all this as for a long time i thought i was damaged. I've had 43 lots of surgery in 3 years, i have infliximab every 8 weeks and i'm on medications. I have so many questions and can see i have found a friend in this site.

Whoever started this is a genius and i cant wait to reading many more stories
