So, I had a loop ileostomy last month and I'm starting to get the hang of this bag thing. Finally able to leave the house and participate in life. Woo hoo!
But lately I've been having Crohn's symptoms again (pain, urgency, passing blood into the toilet). And I haven't had the energy to do much of anything. My doctor said I will probably need a total proctocolectomy. I'm up for anything that will improve my quality of life. But the idea of taking everything out, never to be put back together again, is kind of scary. Any thoughts or suggestions?
Thanks!
Amy
