Hi all,
ive just spent the last month in hospital due to an abscess due to Chrons On IV meds but they are not.
Doing the job. I am opting to have surgery to remove the abscess and a 2nd fistula. The surgeon will have to redo my entire ostomy and possiibly move sites.
Has anyone else gone through this? What were your experiences?
Thanks
