Haha nope, just a spot of ulcerative colitis. An autoimmune disease where your immune system starts attacking the healthy tissue of your colon. Mine went off the scale about 18 months ago and my colon swelled up and exploded inside me. I'm grateful for the surgeon who made the call to do the emergency surgery! I was poisoning myself from the inside with my own shit. Apparently you get about 48 hours before it wipes out your liver and kidneys. Was in intensive care for a week and then in hospital for about 6 more with a post operative ileus, where your small bowel stops working. Had to be fed through a picc line, and was vomiting about 4 litres of green bile a day, through an NG tube in my nose. Not the highlight of my life. Have since had two more surgeries to form a j-pouch, which is a sort of mini colon made from small bowel. But they have to leave a bit of rectum to attach it to, which is still able to get colitis. My surgeon cut mine too long, which might make it unviable long term (but I'm not mad at him, he saved my life).
I never plugged any drugs when I had a healthy rectum and colon, I don't think I'd risk it now. I think the bioavailability of drugs would be closer to oral anyhow, since I'd be putting them directly into small intestine.

That's terrible!
