So, after my 6th surgery for what started as an abscess and ended up as a fustula, that ended up a branch in all sorts of ways, I had a fistulotomy on 9/16. I took two weeks off work because it was "stressed" that I do this, not only to "heal" in corporate terms, but also to prove a point for attendance policy. Guess they still don't believe me when I said it's a work in progress and I don't know when I'll be 100%. They seem to think all will be well now.
The area where my surgery was done on 9/16 is healing nicely. I ended up with 6 surgeries because there ended up being a nasty breaching, complex fistula on top of the first. Now the doctors are leaning towards Crohn's, so I'll be having a colonoscopy, biopsy and blood work here soon. Guessing it wont be too bad considering my experience with the six surgeries and one self induced enema.
My question for all of you out there is that in the last month, I've had nausea when I eat anything or a straight run to the bathroom and hope I can make it in time experience. After the 6th surgery I had problems going number one and went a week to go number two which I figured was psychological, because I knew it would hurt with the new seton and huge wound. But I've never experienced an accident and now I've had two. Not good for 40 hours a week at a job and 15 hours a week at college. Is this just because I've had stomach issues since the last surgery and I can't keep anything down or in because of nerves? Or what? I've never gone to the bathroom this much! Especially considering I'm not really eating.
