Hi all...well I used to be a Jpoucher, for about 15 years, but over the summer,I was slated for pouch redo,but when the surgeon opened me up she found a mass infection,and wasnt able to save it. So here I am today with a perm illeo. Its working great,and Ive been much happier since the surgery, but I had an abcess(enterococcus)basically laying on my tailbone.I had severe pain before surgey and now we know why.I was put on IV daptomyocin, since Vanco pissed off my kidneys,for 6 weeks,and now 6 months later, Im feelin sick, running low grade fevers, and the pain around my tailbone is back. I went to my surgeon,but she doesnt think its likley that it has grown back. Has anyone experienced something like this? Im not sure if abcesses can even grow back. Thanks so much!
