hi all,
Listening to the stories about farting and more to the point sharting made me laugh hysterically, especially as just this morning my husband was explaining just how bad it is during the night. I had a total colectomy and ileo-anal pouch performed about 12 years ago now but still get 'flares' Its all supposed to go away once you have the operation, but i still get problems with inflammation, sore joints and terrible wind. They say that i might have crohns disease, i really dont know what is going on, but well you just get used to it and it all mingles into one problem. i am certainly not as bad as i was and i dont get the same urgency. I dont get much wind during the day but it just builds up all day until about 3pm and then from then on i am increasingly uncomfortable. my problem is that i visit people in their own homes an dcant use their toilet,and therefore am not near a toilet most of the time and then i just dont like using the toilet at work because of the smell. We cant win can we?Well, you have made both my husband and i laugh which makes us feel better. Best wishes to you all and keep posting the funny stories.
