What I have, is called "Caudle (or something spelt like that) Regression syndrome, and if effects nerves in my bladder and colon..thus (as you might guess) Creating a few problems, I had it since i was born..but it really didnt bother me intill I was 12..I mean, it was just part of life for me, catheriseing..it was part of the day, just gotta do it. Below is something m ymom typed..bout all the surguries I've had..I'll try to explain in my own words what they did to me, and how I felt..but Some I dont even know. >>
1:T&A, and tubes at age 2 ½ . Removal of tonsils and adenoids. Put tubes in ears.
2:Cysto (age 3 or 4) Look in bladder. (They just figured out what was wrong)
3:Orchipexy and cysto repair of undescended ball : Some tube didnt move and they had to do it
4:Mitrofonoff stoma- took appendix to make tract for bladder catherization in stomach
5:Change of mitrofonoff catheter (Make the hole different so a new kind of catherter could go in)
6:Bladder stone (crushed stones with laser)
7:Removal of small fragments of the stones
8:Revision of mitronoff stoma: Went in and made opening bigger
9:Bladder augumentation took part of colon to make bladder larger due to small bladder
10:MACE took part of colon to make stoma for colon irrigations (Theese would proove to be..painfull, and..didnt work)
11:Open stone removal: Opened bladder and got the stones out
12:Revision of MACE stoma: Remade the opening for Irrigations
13:Stone laser: Blast em
14:Stone laser
15:Stone laser
16: On May 26th....its gonna redo the whole MACE thingy..and try to get it to work this time..I pray it works.
On the 25th..Gotta go in and stay the night ..I guess to flush me out completly..doc wants me clear >> then 26th the sugery..dunno how many nights I gotta stay overnight..I hope not too many
I'm just having a hard time going through this..I just keep remembering it not working before, but I'm gonna do my best to make the best of it.
Please pray for my Mom, she's havin troubles too.
Thank you all, and God bless.
