You’re so lucky! I was diagnosed with Crohns when I was 20. Worst severity imaginable, I’m 52 now, have had 37 surgeries, have all but 5% of my entire GI tract left, and my doctors refuse to do a transplant here in Canada. I just want to die, it’s destroyed my entire life…eating is torture, I’m on permanent long term disability since I was 46, and can barely afford my medical supplies as I have to pay for them out of pocket, and I go through one new Ileostomy bag a day due to my insanely high output, costing me a fortune…my entire income barely pays for my supplies, my poor spouse has to pay everything else alone, and I hate that I can’t help. Combined with a ton of insanely expensive supplements (as I can barely eat anything), I’m giving up all hope of ever being happy again, and ending my life ASAP, as I have unrestricted access to morphine, Valium, Percocet, codeine, etc…all to deal with the constant agony, I can easily overdose….but NONE of the doctors here will do anything, and tell me I’m too high risk to try anything different. I told them I’m extremely suicidal, I don’t want to die, but I don’t want to live in agony, both physical and emotional (I have severe depression and anxiety, but the psychological meds don’t help, and I’ve tied them all) one more day. If anyone reading this can offer any help, I’m begging you, please tell me. We may have “free health care” but it’s absolutely useless, and could care less about the patients who’s lives they ruin. I’m so very happy for you, and I’m sorry for being so negative, but I just can’t help it…..I can’t afford to go state side and have it done, if I could I would, without hesitation, but unless there’s a charity that helps people in my situation, I’m as good as dead, because I refuse to be more of a burden to my loved ones then I already have been. I would kill to have what you had done, I’ll happy risk my life in order to save it. Because as is, a few more weeks, and I’ll take my own life, I can’t take this agony anymore 😰😰😰😰😰😰😰😰😰😰😰😰😰
I'm sorry man. I wish I knew what to say. My stomach small intestine and large intestine are pretty much shut down. Nothing helps.
I pray that some miracle lands on you. People don't understand. I'm so sorry man
I am 27 years old my small intestine totally damage due to crohn's deisese my weight reduce 25 kg 70 to 45 I have to much pain not able to eat anything I don't want to live anymore 😭😭😭😭
@@glitch5251 what happens I have crohn's deisese
@@gopalahir1942 hey since I made this post I'm doing better. I still have gastroparesis but I'm intestines are kinda ok. Just started taking massive amounts of kefir and kambucha every day for the last month and it helped so much. Try it out! It actually worked better than any medicine the Dr gave me. I take probiotics of some sort 4-5 times a day. It really works!
I have crohn's disease, would this help at all with it?
I've been suffering from ulcerative colitis since 2007, tried all the drugs minus humara only to realize in 2012 I ended up having surgery to remove a mass that had formed in my large intestine(which i'm sure had nothing to do with any of the many toxic medicines and steroids they advised me take). But unfortunately my surgeon advised to take my whole colon out which i completely regret now. It infuriates me that they would have recommended something like this, but I unfortunately too ignorant to realize the real like implications this would have. But anyways. I'm 8 days into the carnivore diet and haven't felt this good in a long time.I truly feel as if i had my colon now, i'd be completely healed on this diet. So many other positives to this diet besides improvement for my ulcerative colitis symtoms. I am fascinated that they are doing these transplants and would love an opportunity to have mine replaced, but research the carnivore diet... I think it's potentially the only and proper way for us to heal our bodies.
only if you had intestinal failure would they do a transplant , there was a man who had crohns and then had a small bowel trabsplant, but the crohns came back and affected his new intestines sigh
can this be a treatment for severe ibs
Kevin Poveromo no

@@adamguerra2120 , your story reads almost exactly like mine, minus the being on deployment part. Nevertheless, I too am dealing with the frustration, but am totally excited that we might get put back together again. If gives me hope for the meantime.
I was in a car accident where my seatbelt cut me in half and I lost 80% of my intestines. I now have to be on TPN and I throw up anything and everything I try to eat or drink. I’m on the TPN for 14hours a day and I throw up 2-4 times everyday and doctors don’t know why. Would I be a candidate for this??
@Brielle Holland yes you could. I presume you are from USA, i don't know how the sanitary system work. How do you feel now?.
Yes I’m from USA. Everything is still the same.
would this work for people with auto immune illnesses ? I no my illness is from food as my symptoms go when I fast or don't eat.... some one please let me no :) thanks

There was a man I read about he had crohns its auto immune and he had intestinal failure due to crohns so he had a transplant but his crohns came back an attacked his new intestine
Even i have auto immune condition. Did you get a transplant.
I’m wondering how his vagus nerve didn’t get damaged/didn’t paralyse his digestion with not only a surgery but a TRANSplant😮
My daughter it’s been dealing with her small intestines not working for 18 years and I will like to get info on this am so tired to see her like this

@@adamguerra2120 I have had my colon removed too, they said i had indeterminate colitis they couldnt decide if its crohns or ulcerative colitis , would like my colon back but I dont think they do colon transplant on its own an tbh it would not seem worth it to me to go through a transplant of that because we can live ok without a colon and having a transplant would be stuck on medication forever need constant check ups and worry about it rejecting anytime
I have had crohns disease since age 18, they told me at that time I was the youngest patient they had ever seen with crohns disease, vanderbilt used my intestines to test out humira. I have had an illeostomy, since 2005 on disability since the first surgery I have now had 14 surgeries total, so I'm pretty sure I will survive the transplant. I also have diabetes please tell me I'm a candidate for this, please ?????? BTW: I'm now 48, and would love to be able to leave my house without looking for the closest bathroom in case my bag filled up which it does about every 30 minutes its an illeostomy. So even making a trip to my doctor I have to stop no less than twice on the trip to their office. I have a 7 year old I would love to be able to live a normal life with go to the park, throw a ball, normal stuff. I have about 22" of paperwork, for you guys to review. St. Thomas in Nashville, I would love to have this there. Please contact me.
How are you doing? 🫶🏽🤍

@GOPAL DANGAR I am from West bengal .. same problem of IBS and indigestion pblm 😭... I want to transplant my small intestine
I'm very much alive
@@thomaslarson7855 hi Thomas, i am very happy for you. I suffer of gastroparesis and CIPO (chronic intestinal pseudo obstruction), i am able to eat but i suffer of chronic pain, indigestion, difficult to eat, feeling full quickly after few bites of foods, nausea, extreme bloating, constipation and sometimes vomiting. Would be interesting to know what kind of disease you were suffering before the surgery.
@@thomaslarson7855 i am so happy for you. In which year did you have a transplant. Are you able to travel and eat freely now.
@@thomaslarson7855 were you on TPN before transplant.
It Takes GUTS
Evan Allaire ur not funny dumbass
@@Cloud-et8cw Yes there is a time and a place and this is not the time or place for humour
As someone who suffers daily in agony with my intestine and am in need of a transplant... i found his joke funny.
He didn't won rather lose because you are living with someone else organ.
What's wrong with having someone elses organ dude? That person doesn't need it anymore to be fair.
