PSC/UC

MissCarissMember

Hi! I'm new here. I am a 35 year old woman and have a history of PSC and UC and recently learned that I have areas of dysplasia in my cecum following an annual colonoscopy. I am preparing for a J pouch, 2 step procedure beginning in January. I have been in remission from UC since an awful bout with C-Diff 3 years ago. As someone who is (very, very thankfully) not in a flare prior to surgery, I was just wondering what I can expect during recovery? How much help should I enlist from family and friends in the short term? Can anyone else relate to being in remission prior to surgery? For me, it is all so surreal because I feel like my diseases are finally well managed and then....bam....dysplasia.

I am incredibly grateful for the vulnerability and honesty conveyed by all who post. You are a true inspiration to more than you will ever know.

Thank you!
