Reply to "Blockages"

I've had a j pouch since 2008 and had my first partial blockage on May 8, 2021. This was an awful and traumatic experience. I had to be transferred via helicopter to another hospital. During my hospital stay they put an ng tube that was hurting my throat and ear. They had to give me antibiotics to prevent infection. Not to mention the constant poking of my veins for the lab works. I have very fragile veins. Each day was torture until I had my surgery on the 13. I had open surgery because the surgeon said a blockage cannot be fixed by laparoscopy. I pray that I don't get another blockage.                        Total colectomy in 2008.                       Take down 2009
