Hi my name is Annie, im 40 years old! July 14 2017 i had planned surgery for permanent ileostomy! December 13 2017 had emergency surgery for obstruction because of scar tissu. Had infection in the incision and nurses were coming to my place to change packing everyday! I am still having lots of problem for my scar to heal! There is always a tender spot and after a couple of days it opens and pus comes out and then some brownish liquid! My abdominal muscles dit not healed corectcly and now i have a loop of intestin in between and hernia! Even my surgeon does not know what to do next! I have always been a positive person but now im getting very tired, i have had enought! Please someone help me! Im scared that i will have to go in surgery again!

Thank you
