Hi everyone,
I'm a 22 year old female and was just recently diagnosed with Crohn's disease in the perianal area this past January and things have progressed relatively quickly. I've had three surgeries to remove abscesses and one to have 3 drains placed. I currently have 2 setons in place and I'm receiving remicade every 8 weeks, taking 6-MP daily, and on flagyl/cipro 2x daily. There has recently been talk about getting a bag placed temporarily to help with the healing process and I'm interested in knowing about your experience's and how it changed your life?
Any advice or stories would be greatly appreciated. Thank you
