Heading to CC tomorrow for an appt. w/ Dr. Remzi & Dr. Shen next week. Have mixed emotions right now. Glad to be going so I can find out what my course of action will be for a fistula (which I'm not sure where the fistula is since the 2 CT's done have conflicting reports) & also scared to find out what the course of action will be! This will be my second fistula & really hate the idea of going back to the ileostomy but I know if it is a temporary I can deal with it. I just pray this doesn't lead to the loss of the pouch & a permanent ileostomy. I went through this 6 years ago & really believed I'd never have to see the Cleveland Clinic again! Yuck!
