Wow! Similar to my wife. She’s got two setons now and potentially having another surgery to address her abscess that keeps coming back. She’s on infliximab (inflectra, I think remicade is the same? so many names for one medicine!). She’s almost at the two year mark, and has gotten a lot better- just those pesky abscesses are the main issue!
