Thank you for your response. We doing ok , apparently she having some type of dermatitis related to the type of bags for the ostoma. Last night at ER they prescribed her an ointment (Kenalog) 0.1% and it’s helping a little of course we need to wait couple days more to see final results . Adding to that The ostoma nurse started trying to do different bags brands to see if maybe it’s that the problem , she said maybe my daughter is allergic to some brands that they have using . My daughter had diagnosed with Crohn’s disease about a year or so but doctors think she started with The Crohn’s like 4 years prior . First they removed the gallbladder and after that she continued with the bowel’s movement and they found that was Crohn’s syndrome instead. After a year or so of treatment they found out she have bad part in her intestines so they decided to remove part of it so they did did and after surgery she started leaking inside they put a drainage and went home . At hime she’s started bleeding and she had infection too . She went back to the hospital they fix inside the drainage and put it more big inside . Went home and the next day again to the hospital and they decided to do the ileostomy and went home and now she having the rash problem . I’m very concerned about her . She’s depressed she just cry and cry . She’s not getting weight she’s loosing weight. I’m doing everything to help her . I know it’s a long journey, but it’s very sad for me seen her like that . We got in contact with a psychologist to see if she can get some therapy . It’s not easy but we doing everything we can to support her everyday . But let’s see how it goes now with the skin protection. In 2 months she’s going back to surgery the reverse . Hopefully she get it done and get better . Thank you for your support.
