Wow puts my illness into perspective really, I just had to suffer with being aroused 24/7, which when you think about it doesn't sound so bad really..

I spent most of my teens like that and it wasn't that bad really.

Hopefully you'll get some result though from the tests as they are all horrible. Drinking that clear out solution for the colonoscopy has got to be the most evil thing on earth.

I hope so too, regardless it will be with me for life now. There is no known cause either which isn't very encouraging.
Yes, the pickleaxe (picolax) is nasty stuff, but only because of the cramps. The "going" part isn't so bad, nothing I'm not already used to as a result of the chrons/colitis... However its worse than just colitis/chrons, since I'm losing blood when I "go" as well, making me iron deficit anemic.
Life is bad, but I'll get there!

Re: What's the worst/strangest illness you've ever had?
I have Iritis, that reoccurs whenever it wants to, can be free for a year then might have it 4 times the next year. Very painful indeed, the first time I had it, it got misdiagnosed for about 5 days, and I ended up wanting to pull my eyeball out!
Then I had to have an injection in my eyeball, very scary!
I now self -medicate, and have supplies of the drops at all times, so if I catch it early, I do not suffer too much any more.
Worst thing was a servere case of Shingles though, all around the trunk of my body.
I had to continue to work, as self employed, and at that time could not afford to pay someone else to do my work for me.
I'm sounding just like my Grandma now, moaning about her ailments!!

What's it like to have cataracts? Can you actually see anything?

I don't know about Russ. And, unfortunately, in my case the answer would be no either way
