things getting better

Holly that is great news! I wish I could say the same. The j pouch seems to be getting stronger for me as well.It will be 1 year on 4/30.

I am still having some complications in other areas. They found blood in urine and the girlie issues (if u know what I mean) I had a biopsy to see if I have an infection. Not sure what is going on in that area. I certainly have my OBGYN stumped! I went into menopause right after the surgery and I am only 49 now.

Not having a good time yet! Happy St. Patrick's Day to all!

RLC, hopefully theY will figure out what is going on with you. Like I said I was scared to say this or put it in writing, always waiting for the other shoe to drop. I thought I was going into menopause after my 2nd surgery but 4 months later things started back up on schedule. I am 53 and still regular as rain in that area.

That's great news Holly! Sometimes it DOES take that whole year for things to settle down and settle in.

Roberta - I'm so sorry you're continuing to have problems. You've been suffering for way too long. It's not good when the doctors are 'stumped.'
