    Thanks again to everyone and their positive thoughts for me. 9 days ago the surgeon performed an I&D (incision and drain). Since then the swelling and pain have greatly diminished. I'm not 100%, but I am in much better shape than I was for 5+ weeks that were pure misery.

    That is awesome news. As someone who has lived with pain for years, finally getting rid of it is such a relief. Really glad you are on the mend.

    You definitely have to take an active approach to your own wellbeing. Seems like a lot healthcare professionals are happy to just let ya limp along status quo. Continued best wishes and keep us posted.

    Some of these hackers, spoofers are really good. Sometimes it's hard to tell what's real and not.

    Just an update on my saga. In August 2018, I had surgery to remove the bulk of the mesh from my hernia surgery. The complications still continued. In late December 2018, I had another surgery to remove every bit of the mesh that was left (5 hours on the table, and 5 days in the hospital).
    I continued to have drainage from 3 holes in my lower left abdomen, as well as from the original hernia incision. The new theory was that because of my Crohn's disease, I had developed several fistulas from my colon that were draining from my abdomen. Specifically, 3 fistulas, and the incision. The conclusive evidence was when I had a barium contrast and ultrasound. The moment the contrast was injected into my colon, the barium immediately leaked from the 3 holes, and incision. Voila! After 10 months they figured out why.


    I am now seeing IBD experts at UCSF medical center. They intend to put me on Stelara in the hopes that it will put my Chron's in "remission", and that all the the leaking holes will repair themselves, or that surgery (a fistulectomy) would work.


    It really has been, and continues to be a painful, trying time, but I just wake up every day and persevere.

    Best wishes, Jerome!

    I think the misery and complications that often come with Crohn's are under-recognized. It can be a pretty debilitating disease. I have a good friend who couldn't travel more than a 20-minute distance from her house unless she could be sure that she would have immediate access to a bathroom. She was consistently anemic. But then she started Stelara and her health and quality of life vastly improved. I hope the same proves true for you!

    Glad to hear that they at least figured it out and can take steps to resolve it. Sometimes the ‘not knowing’ is practically the worst thing with health related matters. Hopefully the Stelara will do the trick.
