wtf is this

[Imsosickandtired]

I’m in so much pain these days and waiting to see the GI doctor to have a colonoscopy and a endoscopy done at the same time . Unfortunately Kaiser is such an amazing hospital that I can’t be seen till mid march since they have to make a bigger time slot for me to have both procedures at once. So he is what going on probably about 10 months ago I had a surgery to remove an iud the was rotated in my uterus wall. Wait let me take it a step further back. I had a pelvic ultrasound and the tech who was probing me knocked my IUD out of place . I know this because the pictures she took showed the IUD where it was supposed to be but after my appointment I started haveing terrible cramps. About 4 days later I had a ct scan of the same area and it showed the IUD was no longer in the same place . It was about then the my bowl movements stopped. I think it was near three weeks before I finally was able to go . I told the doctors I thought maybe the IUD was perforating my colon possibly and they assured me that wasn’t the case . After going back to have another image of the IUD to get a better look the veteran ultrasound technician told me there was no way that IUD was coming out without surgery and that she had 30+ years and knows what she was talking about . Still the obgyn said they were going to try and to come back in . After tugging and pulling for about 5 minutes the obgyn confirmed it wasn’t coming out and I would need surgery to have it removed. Guess what happened after surgery I finally had a bowel movement but that’s when things started to get funky . First my poop was pale then, no poop, then poop that looked like Chinese food , then no poop, then poop that looked like rope worm then poop that looked like cocoons the list goes on for the crazy stuff that’s been coming out . I’m now at the point where I can only poop with softeners, laxative’s and enemas at the same time and my stool looks like it’s covered half the time in intestinal wall or mucus. I wanted to share some photos in hopes someone can help me figure this out . Please don’t make negative comments and feedback I’m already physically in enough pain and emotionally struggling with this since I spend about 3 hours a day struggling to use the bathroom.

So sorry to hear your story.

You appear to be in a huge amount of mental and physical pain.

It’s good to get your feelings aired well done.

There have been times when I have been very down with my UC.

Be kind to yourself and be courageous. This will pass.I like the saying. True courage is carrying on even when you don’t have the strength to.

It really doesn’t help when there is such a long wait for medical stuff.

It’s hard to feel supported.
