Hi Crystal, you haven't been on for a while, how are you doing? hope you've been ok, and I'm so glad your friend doesn't have Crohn's, that must be a relief. Hope you have a blessed Easter,
Hi Crystal! Im really sorry to hear that your good friend was just diagnosed with Crohns! If you need to talk about it im always here! How are you doing? How is she doing? Is she in the hospital? When shes feeling better you should tell her about this site!
Hi again, I just wanted to ask you a question, right now my rectum is very swollen and painful, I call in my babbon butt. it's almost like my rectum is turned inside out. the other thing is there seens to be a big pocket in my rectum full uf puss, is that an absess or a fistula or something else. What did they do for you. because I just got out of the hospital several days ago as I was having severe pain where my desending colon andmasending colon meet and there was blockage there but in doing an x-ray and ultra sound they found a large lump Tumor , growth there and the doctor said she was so surprised no one had felt it before and told me about it. there was feces in there to and I was able through alot of different things they did to me to pass the stool, but I still feel stool up there and it's not coming down. THe paramedics were afraid that I had perforated. and that didn't happen but I get the worst pain there and it feels like something inside of my left side is ripping, hurts to the point of tears. I also found out when I got to the Er that my hemaglobin was at 6 so I got a blood transfusion probably my 45 or 50th one and there are times I get blood transfusions and the blood won't register, when they come back even a couple days later it doesn't show that i got any blood. I know I am bleeding in my colon I see the blood, so I know I m constantly losing blood. and the nurse told me this time, since I've had so many transfusions they need to let me knoe from now on that there is a small chance now with each transfusion that I could aquire HIV. It always freaks me out when I am given other peoples blood, and according to my blood work, my bone marrow is making misshaped red cells and my body won't us them they just die, so that is why after the transfusion now most likely everyother week I will need more and more blood. I am severely anemic and losing weight fast. can you tell me how you were taken care of you with you rectum situation? thanks so much. sorry for being so graphic but I am just looking for some answers. also I found out that most coln cancer patients get cancer when the tumor is in the asending and desending colon. so I think I have that tumor in there and it's really hard for feces to get by it and thats what causes so far temporary blockages. and then my intestines have really bas spasms, well ever since this began this stay at the hospital. so, please if you could or would give me some insight, I know you are not a doctor , but you are a crohns sufferer and I'd rather hear from people that have gone through it. thanks so much Crystal. I really apperciate any light you can help me shine on this. thanks, love in christ, Donna
