I thought I'd do a video, before embarking on my quest to India for Kshar sutra, to describe what it has felt like to live with a fistula for the past seven years. It's definitely been difficult, but if you have a fistula, I hope you can find something relatable in my journey (except the duration, I hope!), and know that you are not alone. It is something you can live with, though I hope you also can find a cure. I know how painful and devastating it is. I look forward to connecting with you.

If you also have Crohn's, feel free to check out my Specific Carbohydrate Diet (SCD) and Crohn's Story videos. I hope they could be helpful, and there are other resources in the descriptions of those videos too.

For more fistula stories, check out Norma Johnson on Youtube, especially "taking care of your fistula" man she did a great job of that I wish she was around sooner.

Ok, take care.

With love,

Erica
