Ok so my husband has been in hospital for 3 weeks now due to his colitis. medication stoped working . hes not responding to steroids or any other meds .. They are saying our only option is surgery. They are talking about removing his colon and giving him an otsomy and at some point reconnecting and useing some of his bowel to form a pouch to help regulate his movements ... He is going 20 to 30 times a day at this point .. Q. Has any one had this surgery.. Q. How did it change ur symptoms... Q. Has it improved ur life ... Q. How many time and how often do. u have to go.. Q. Do you work how has it affected. Ur job .. Q. What is the best way to help. someone come to terms with this. os bodylllll)

There are numerous causes of colitis including infection, inflammatory bowel disease, ischemic colitis, allergic reactions, and microscopic colitis. Symptoms of ulcerative colitis vary from person to person. If you need your help then I would suggest you that you should go for health insurance plans like BCBS Medigap ( https://www.thehealthexchangeagency.com/blue-cross-blue-shield-medicare-supplement/ ) which is a good option to go with and this plan is offered by the health insurance company The Health Exchange Agency.

I had severe colitis, and this was before biologics (which don’t work for me anyway) and I finally got sick and tired of being sick and tired. Had the surgery, it’s a very big deal and takes a long time to recover from, but ultimately i’m Glad I had it done.
