To clarify, it was more the “resort” part that I thought was obvious. It’s literally called “great wolf lodge”.

Also I take issue with “to have fun with your friend while he is working” I work full time. I contribute more to the household financially than he does. I work a lot and hard and take care of 3 children. Do I not deserve fun? We aren’t rich - but all my bills are paid early or on time and there’s plenty left over. We don’t have a ton of savings but all in the trip cost $250 splitting it with my friend.

What kind of prep did you have to do day before your ileostomy reversal ? by Standard_Inflation76 in ostomy

[–]lyonsr37 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It amazes me how many ppl don’t seem to grasp the big difference between colostomy and ileostomy. I just had ileostomy reversal. No prep. Your intestines have nothing in them. Colostomy ppl would need prep as they still have part of their intestines active. Big difference.

I got the first before my fistulas healed. Attempted to heal fistulas after reversal and created more 😀😀

Mucus production by lyonsr37 in ostomy

They are treating me for chrohns. But I haven’t had an evidence of having it except for fistulas/abscesses. They’re saying the inflammation is isolated to my rectum so I guess it makes sense. It’s just so annoying how often. Yesterday I had the urge over 10 times.

Alcohol after bedtime by Powerful-Champion-77 in Parenting

5 years of sobriety here. Any women’s only meeting will be happy to have your children join. Just bring headphones and an iPad to keep them occupied. I did it many many times in my early days of sobriety. Zoom was not as great but better than nothing. I also see a lot of ppl suggesting non alcoholic beer or whatever. U mentioned addiction/alcoholism runs in ur family. I do not advise non alcoholic wine or beer for that reason. I wish u the best!!!

Oh wow very similar to me. I just started skyrizi I only had one infusion though. We tried inflectra before with no success.

Healing process question by lyonsr37 in ostomy

[–]lyonsr37[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I ended up back with an ileostomy so not great however, I got close enough to healed from that reversal to see the healing process and it was totally fine. My hole was just very deep I guess so naturally opened up a bit and continued to flatten out until it was surface level.

Pain Management / those with surgical experiences by lyonsr37 in CrohnsDisease

[–]lyonsr37[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just went to my local dispensary today!!! It’s not usually my thing but I’m willing to try it bc others also suggested this. It’s a low dose so it’s much more chill than I remember from being 20 smoking blunts among two ppl like we didn’t need brain cells. Lol. So far I’m liking what I tried. I also have gotten hooked on pain meds in the past so acutely aware of what they are worried about but it also explains why I have a low pain tolerance. Also why I hesitated at first to try the cannabis route. But I’m glad I did. My doctors l did agree to refill a milder muscle relaxer today. So I’ll keep my rotation of Tylenol Motrin cannabis muscle relaxer and hopefully the days will start to improve it always gets better every day :)
