Hi everyone! I've had a membership to this website for a while... but I haven't actually been on it until now. I had jpouch surgery about a year ago, and I got to say, it has not been an easy ride. I am in a constant flare-up, and it seems like no doctor can help. It affects my entire life. I have to force myself to eat; I have absolutely no appetite. I'm always so tired and weak that I have trouble focusing at work and in school. I work at a vet clinic and I'm studying to be a veterinary technician, so lifting heavy dogs is a big part of my job... that I can't do. Does anyone have any advice? Maybe a diet that works well? Thanks to all of you ;
