Hiya everybody, not been on the forum for ages, been poorly.
Anyway, I'm having a resection on Friday. I don't have any questions, got everything I need off this forum!
I hope it's going to give me some remission and my life back on track
Not sure whether it's going to be keyhole or open, the CT scan showed that some of my bowel has adhered to my hysterectomy scar, behind the belly button, surgeon might not be able to get through, so might go in thro original scar.
It is what it is
I will update as soon as I can next week, wish me luck! xxx
 
Good luck, Joan! I hope this brings you many years of remission. I know you've been doing poorly for awhile now so hopefully this is just the thing to get you your life back. Got my fingers crossed for you and am anxious to hear how it all goes!
 
All the very best wishes. I hope everything goes smoothly and you're back to normal ASAP!
Sending healing thoughts your way.
 
That's a while you've not been well, hun. Surgery has done wonders for me and I wish you the same :heart::hug:
 
Hey Joan

Wishing you all the best as you get ready for surgery, and here's hoping that everything goes as smoothly as possible...after being sick for so long, it would be great if this surgery offers you relief and good health.

Will be thinking of you and sending you lots of good wishes...
