Iliostomy reversal

Post by Unhappytummy »

Hi everyone. I'm having my loop Iliostomy reversed in 13 days . Was done After bowel resection due to diverticulitis damage. Could some of you share your experiences. Preferable positive ones, as I'm very anxious. My surgeon, who is wonderful, doesn't foresee any real issues, mentioned urgency, unpredictable bowel movements etc, and I have read, ( he didn't say this) that there can be gas pains. I have an important family occasion one month later and I would like to be well enough for that. Any answers would be very welcome .

Hi TT, I'm having my colostomy reversal in 11 days. I too hope some folks can share their past experiences (good or bad).
