I’m being discharged this morning with more questions than answers. That is not the fault of my medical team though, just the fault of my body. We know I have developed colitis, inflammation of the bowel, but we don’t know if it is autoimmune ulcerative colitis or if it is being caused by a virus. My stoma is ulcerated & the abdominal pain & swelling is not fun but at this stage I can ride it out in the comfort of my own home with strict instructions to call my Specialists if anything gets worse. My stoma nurse visited me before I headed home. She is so lovely. She just said I’m like a doll that keeps getting pushed over but refuses to lie down & bounces back up with every hit. I’m certainly going to fight on but I am hoping & praying that the hits stop coming.
