UCVlog: My Ignorance Before Surgery

Before I underwent surgery, there was no ulcerative colitis vlog. I had technical knowledge of what the surgery involved but I knew very little of the personal experiences of others.

How long was it from the diagnosis of UC to your 1st surgery?

[UCVlog]

It was almost exactly one year.

I went into my 1st surgery with very little knowledge. However before my second surgery (j pouch formation) I found your vlog and count myself very lucky that I did. The information that you provide is fantastic and has really helped me. I have just come out of hospital after my second op and will be having the takedown surgery within the next 4-6 weeks. Thanks very much, and keep up the good work!
