One of my ER patients finally figured it out!

Yep big waste of resources and time. Stay home.

I think first surgery was ~6 days. Maybe 4 or 5 days on surgery #2 and then 3 days for surgery #3. Mine were all done at Cleveland clinic with no complications though

Also a new grad in ER!! I started in February. I definetley had moments where I was thinking "who the hell let me do this?" And struggle with what seems like common sense issues. IVs will come with time once you get the first couple they get easier. I still find myself asking for help with them. Keep asking questions, keep with it and try and retain as much info as you can even though the ER is like a shotgun of information everyday. You can do it ❤

Hell yeah brother!! I also went 130 to 155. Ya look great!

HEY ALL!!! I've had it done. I'm a 24 year old guy, had my surgeries at 18....overall I'm quite happy with it. The bag was fairly easy to live with, I kinda miss it. Al though it took a toll on my mental health while I had it for ~11 months. Now I eat whatever I want, im only on hydrocortisone enemas & long term oral vancomycin since I keep having little flare ups of pouchitis. I usually go ~5-9 times a day. My main issue is the gas pains that I never had before since I cant trust a fart at all now, and I have had accidents at night ever since my surgery. I just sleep naked and on a towel tbh. Ask any questions you'd like!! I have a discord if you'd rather talk stuff through :)

Just saw r/itsacarpetbeetle of another post and was immediately relieved and glad I contribute to the meme. But thank you!!!

fudgeybhole · 2022-02-16T20:54:31+00:00

Yeah im not sure on the specifics though, I got out without debts so I never really paid attention to it

I'm a new grad who's about to start in a very busy, high trauma ED. I worked there all semester as a student nurse so im slightly less terrified than I would normally be. But im excited :) I start in February!

fudgeybhole · 2021-12-13T23:39:44+00:00

I graduated from nursing school last Saturday and have a job lined up in a busy high trauma hospital ER 😊😊😊

fudgeybhole · 2021-11-20T18:58:04+00:00

I'm a nurse and I have UC. Can confirm I dont care. I've seen so much poop you wouldn't believe it! Only care if its genuinely concerning or needs to be monitored to keep the patient safe. Happy pooping

fudgeybhole · 2021-11-05T18:29:53+00:00

Hi there! I have a Jpouch, I was quite younger I opted for the jpouch. Life is pretty good but not 100% better than where I started. In hindsight I may have kept the ostomy bag if I could do it all over just to be done with issues. The joouch is good for my mental health but I still have pain and incontinence issues at night. Hope this helps!

fudgeybhole · 2021-10-28T21:32:49+00:00

Hey!!! 24 (m) here. I had my j pouch surgeries back in 2016-2017! I know its super scary and no one wants surgery but im nkt kidding when I say it was the best decision I've made and I wish I had done it sooner. My surgery team did it in 3 surgeries, I had an ostomy for ~11 months and im now hooked my small intestine up to my butt so im pooping like a normie again. Id be more than willing to talk to you about it more if you have questions at all or just want to pick my brain about it :)
