Ok all, haev had so many blockages I lost count. I was too stubborn for surgery. I death for 10 years. Spent every 3 months at least in ER. Finally could no longer eat. Had surgery removed about 25 although surgeon said it was not too bad. Had a few minor ones since then, only one hospital visit. But now something is happening again as my system last week started shutting down. Had this 5 years ago, different from the other blockages but could not eat! nauseau, distended, major gas, etc. So, now I'm back at NYP and they r trying to figure out what is the cause. The surgeon took a scope today but just found pouchitis, now wants GI to do a endoscope. Had a MRI enter gran? Spelling? Everything looks fine. Surgeon does not think pouch is causing this, maybe adhesions again? I'm tired of the same tests, same things, over and over and over. So far I held down food yesterday but still on IV drip which opened everything up. Looks like a long visit, G says something has to be done if they can figure out what. Adhesions don't show on tests Most of the time.
