Cosentyx side effects
I now have a permanent
ileostomy
and am a little worried about starting the treatment - tried Sulfasalazine last year and effects were a bit of a nightmare to put it mildly! Any thoughts or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Hello
My legs have just got worse and worse, I was put on gabapentin for them, didn't work but still on them as I also have Crohn's Disease and an
ileostomy
, so the gabapentin helps with pain left from my operation but that was 4 years ago.

Thank you for all your replies and support after my bowel obstruction and addition of
ileostomy
bag. I’m home now and slowly recovering. I’m still trying to get my head round it and having quite a few blips here and there.

I do have B12 injections due to

B12 deficiency due to Ileostomy
I have an
ileostomy
due to major bowel surgery two years ago. Because of this I don’t absorb B12 and get an injection every three months! I don’t feel this is enough as after six weeks I start to get symptoms again! Anyone else in the same situation and how often do you get an injection!

Doctor refuses to give me VItamin B12 injections
I’ve had crohns for a long time and in 1996 I had and
ileostomy
and then a further two small bowel resections For the last 17 years I’ve had B12 injections every three months. I moved 180 miles away from my surgery where I used to go.

Life is a Wonderful Thing
The loss of blood pressure can cause other organ failure and before anymore head work could be considered I had to be transferred to another hospital with a carousel full of wires and tubes connected and I had sections of my large and small intestines removed, an
Ileostomy
performed and a stoma bag fitted

Feeling like im failing
They found the pills caused a blockage in my colon which lead to emergency surgery and i am left with an
Ileostomy
bag that is temporary until i can get it reversed. That eats at my confidence all the time. I dont ever feel confident in myself. Each day just feels like im being consumed.

In focus: stomas - stoma surgery
As we outlined in the previous post in this series, there are two types of bowel stoma: an end
ileostomy
or colostomy and a loop colostomy or
ileostomy
. An end stoma is permanent.

Have all the symptoms of IBS but is it something else?
I have had what I would call a successful
ileostomy
since 1968 which cured 4 years of misery with ulcerative colitis. I could eat everything, just not ridiculous amounts of hard to-digest-fruits and veggies which have cause several painful blockages over the years (scar tissue or gluttony?)

In focus: stomas - introduction
This is called a loop
ileostomy
or loop colostomy and involves two bowel openings, one leading from the remaining bowel and the other towards the rectum/anus.

PA along with Ileostomy
I have an
Ileostomy
, and P.A does anyone know what percentage of b12 I will absorb from normal sources, and how often I should inject. I am still getting the stock answer from GP "once every three months" and he will not deviate from this.
