Reply to "Who really loves their J-pouch?"

I'm with Silo City... its a love-hate relationship with my pouch.  Glad to be off the prednisone, but not loving some of the issues with the pouch.  I think what frustrates me more now, is that I feel like I was mislead back in 1996 when I was diagnosed.  Surgery was offered as the cure... but the reality is that there is no cure for the auto immune disorder at the heart of UC.  So, while I don't have bloody diarrhea anymore, there's still other issues to deal with daily.  So, now we learn to manage the symptoms, and learn from what others have experienced.  And, that is why this forum is so helpful.  We're all in this together.  And hey, who else can you talk poop with??  ☺
