It's been a struggle to say the least but I finally feel like I am getting somewhere with this jpouch journey. It's been 10 years since I started this journey and I hope my last 2 posts can help someone.
I know everyone is different but I found what works for me. Between pouchitis, weight loss and lack of sleep I was almost ready to give up. I'm still dealing with weight gain but that's been my entire life.
I actually had to stop coming on this forum because it was depressing me. I left my wife and child because I felt I was just a drain and I couldn't imagine having more kids who might end up just like me. I am still working on this situation but I finally feel like I am my old self again.
This is a good place (the forum) and I have learned a lot from being on here and adapting what I learned to work for me. Don't give up! I will try to keep checking in and give updates when I can.
Good luck everyone and I hope you are all doing well! If you have questions or anything just ask. I know most of us are on here because the jpouch journey is difficult and we are trying to figure something out.
