I have a fistula from intestines to skin that is draining externally. I have to have surgery but not planned yet. Anyone have this type of fistula? It was from a failed J Tube.

Hi @bluedog35 - I wanted to let you know I moved your post here about the fistula draining externally due to a failed J Tube so that you could continue your past discussions with others such as @colleenyoung @maddog72 here talking about J Tube removal issues:

I'd also like to tag @juneau1062 @goldenshadow @naoshapiro1 @manuelo who have spoken to J Tube removal issues in the Esophageal Cancer support group on Connect. Hoping they can share whether they have developed this type of fistula you mentioned.
