Molly, there's a lot of information is the details of your diagnosis. Have you been able to sit down with your doctor and go through all the terms to develop a treatment plan?

I have talked to my gastroenterologist, however, did not understand enough to ask the appropriate questions such as how this will affect my life and life expectancy, what I will experience, medications for this disease, etc.

If you are not due for appointment, call and ask to come in and have a discussion. My doctor told me to call anytime. He is a real gem and one of my favorite people!

I will. I especially need to know what some of the terms are. They sometimes act like they are afraid to tell you anything. Answers will only inform me and maybe I can find something I can do to help this disease.
