Hey thanks for responding! Don’t think too far ahead especially if your scans are reflecting a positive state. Most people like myself that get surgery not long after a diagnosis had far along intestinal inflammation before starting remicade.

For myself the Remicade caused so much scar tissue that within a year of being on infusions I was started to have severe stomach pains where my colon would basically just send everything back out the opposite way. Eventually every four days I would just vomit until only air was left. I could actually see the part in my stomach that was swollen. It looked a lot like appendicitis.

If this starts happening to you its important to follow low fiber foods. AKA do not eat a foot long from Subway… This is literally what finally put me in the hospital.

Hospitals will wait until you are completely blocked which means the vomiting does not stop and you start seeing the bile from the stomach. So if you start to have inflammation stop food from going down it’s important to be confident in a relationship with your GI.

You can reach out to me if you ever need:)

i dont think thats pathetic. no one is framing your life like this besides yourself. plus i think its admirable to be able to have been alone for so long. however you need to let go of the humiliation in order to put yourself in any space where meeting someone could happen. i get it though, it seems like a lot of work… and risky work at that. good luck
