Last reply: 27 February 2024 15:13

Hello!

39 y.o fella from Dublin. Born with FAP - De nuevo!
In and out of Temple Street & Crumlin and had so many tubes and proceedures.
Had Total Colectomy with Ileo-Anal and J-Pouch at 16

Now its getting agressive in my Duodenum and will require more surgery this year.

Im seeing the surgeon in Vincent's in the coming weeks.

You gotta be strong to live with FAP but im feeling quite weak and scared now.

Anyone out there with this Beautiful Condition? Id really love to connect and relate to another human being about this.

Much love! and thanks for reading
