  6. Awaiting getting my peritoneal dialysis catheter removed at hospital. About 2 weeks less than a year since I had it put into my belly.

    Medications much reduced in number and dose, just the 2 anti-rejection ones, 2 BP ones, one of each a day, statin and another. Doc said may even lose Ciclosporin in time and just take one anti rejection med.

  14. CW: Chronic illness discussion hospitals Crohn’s and poop chat

    I must be doing a bit better this morning as I was allowed to get up to the toilet, and I’m attempting to decipher France Inter 7/10 sur la radio. Coffee and yogurt so hopefully a none too painful 💩 to come, which I am dreading in case of any straining needed. Typically my Crohn’s has been so well behaved that I have a wee bit of difficulty once a day at the moment.
