Have both Corona and Pnuemonia

Glad to hear you are on the mend!

O gosh, Champ... hope the road to recovery continues without bumps!!

How are you doing today, Champ?

Glad you are recovering, and I hope your digestive track catches up soon!

You said it (RE NY now), Champ!!!! A few days back I got phone message from longtime gastro's office about changing my scheduled late May office visit to a video-consult: whoa! That nearly dumped me into a UC flare! I mean, how long do they expect us to stay shutdown? *** But very glad to hear that you have solid BMs now. Maybe the hospital antibiotics combo got rid of some pouch bugs you had before the COVID-19. (?) / Old Hat (39 yrs with left-sided UC; presently in remission taking brandname Colazal)

Stool is best it’s ever been since surgery(go figure?). Getting back to normal for myself. Here in NY normal isn’t happening for weeks. Love to u all.

Glad you are feeling better. And yes, NY is anything but normal right now.

thank you,i got beat up but im ok now

Thanks had surgery to remove colon in 2018,just dealing with recovery from corona and pnuemonia now.All good

Glad you are doing better!!!

I am sorry you had to go through all that , but thankful you were one of the lucky ones🙏. Is the government subsidising you at all for being off work?
And hopefully the morons there don’t open up everything too quickly. Better to be safe then sorry.
How is your mom ?

Happy to hear your mom is still doing ok . Lets hope all this is over with soon . Our government is giving out $2000 a month if you are out of work which helps a little better then nothing.

Things are still the same with my pouch I have come to the conclusion my pouch likes to be different 🙃 my BM are still up towards 10-15 a day, along with gas pain but it’s ok nothing is really going to change now .. I remember you saying you can empty your pouch and you sometimes only go once a day are you still the same ? For myself I rarely empty it .!Around 5-6 am everything that comes out is yellow liquid almost like form and that will last till about 10 am. Have you experienced that.

Hi friends!
Valli - glad things are ok. Not sure what the watery yellow is about... how's your gall bladder? I remember my surgeon saying it gets full of liquid until you eat something (he was telling me to have a little snack an hour or so before a morning CT scan so my gall bladder wouldn't look enlarged...)

3 TC, glad things are what they are.

I'm in Connecticut, about 70 miles from NYC, in a community that normally has a lot of NYC train commuters. I've had one death in extended family and several in my congregation, but my immediate circle is fine. I've been working my tail off, suddenly working completely from home and learning the tech to bring everyone else along, lol. And though I've always worked some from home, so "boundaries" have always been a challenge, not when I get a call or email at a weird hour I'm afraid it's an Emergency!! - so I answer it. Not good. Too many 12 hour days and not one off in ages. (I did take a few hours this afternoon.

Long story, but I had my 2 year post start-of-chemo CT scan last week (it was supposed to be Feb and there was a screw up) and it was all clear! and they had told me the first 2 years are the most dangerous in terms of recurrence. So - hooray!

I go about 5 times a day, basically 3:30 or 4 pm until about 9pm, unless I've eaten something odd. (I had a lot of popcorn yesterday! and paid for it today. Worth it, lol!) Normally I'm good overnight, again, depending on diet - so I don't let it freak me. I sip water until bedtime, so I need to get up i the night to pee anyway!

I've thought of you both and all my other friends on here! Stay safe -
