Crohn's surgery
Had surgery on the eighth. They removed 24" of small intestine and a golf ball sized mass. Home now in recuperation mode.

They hook you back together or do you have an ostomy?
My ex-boss went the other route, had a J-Pouch procedure, which just seems overly complicated.

Crap, Z, I'm sorry it got that bad. I hope at least this will offer you some relief, now that it's out.

At least they didn't let you linger in pain. Now you'll feel better soon as you are healed!
Best wishes Pete! |

I'm hoping for a speedy recovery for you, pete. I should have said that before, but I am sometimes socially awkward

I hope you're feeling better soon, and I hope you take all the time you need to heal.
Here's a pic I took for you a little while ago.

My mom had to have a similar thing done for large polyps (colon cancer runs in the family) I remember the recovery was not fun. Hope you get better soon Pete, my sympathies go out to you.

Still very weak. But every day's a litlle bit better.
Plumbing still works the same just a shorter pipe. Interesting bit of trivia: the piece they took out (the last two feet of the small intestine) is the only part that can absorb B12. I'll be getting B12 shots to compensate.
