I really don't want to tell people about this..but

I havent', but I understand how badly you suffer. Having lady i ssues sucks, but I can imagine that what you describe is worse than ordinary female problems. I want to say I'm so sorry you're having to undergo yet another procedure, and else are suffering. Please do keep us updated.
 
Thank you I will.
I know I'm not but at times I feel like a freak, and no one seems to know what I can do about this.
But I do thank you for for the kind words.

Hello M&M
Welcome to the forum.
Are your fistulas related to Crohns or has no one yet adequately diagnosed you.?;
Have you been checked by a gynecologist and a gastroenterologist?
If not it could be a good place to start.
It is very discouraging that your doctor has not referred you for a condition she is clearly unable to deal with.
Maybe someone on the forum may have some helpful advice for you.
It is good that you have been able to talk about it on the forum, and you are free to do this any time.
I would suggest a specialist opinion as soon as possible.
Do you have a history of Crohn's? If so then you should seek advice from a gastroenterologist soon.
Sorry I can't be more helpful.Hugs and best wishes

Hi M,
So sorry to hear of your pain in and of the negative diagnosis of your surgeon.
I would definitely be seeking other opinions.
Not sure which area of Ontario you are from but there are good specialists in Hamilton and Toronto.
Wish I could help more
Hugs
