Waiting for Reversal

Post by TashaEss »

Hello my dad has currently got a stoma bag on and he is due to see his surgent in March about having the reversal i stuck on what questions to ask as my dad would forget what the Surgent had told him as he left the room. I will also be talking a pen and book with e so i can jot down some note while he is talking.

What questions have you asked about the revesal or what have your experiance been. The questions i have at the moment are

What type of complications are they?
When could normal activities be resumed?
What food and drinks should be avoided during and after the reversal?

any more questions would be a huge help as i want the DR to go in to alot of detail so i can understand and help my dad as much as possiable

Thank you:)

I am waiting too, so I can't really answer your questions. But I wanted to say that I or my wife will record those conversations with the surgeons on my phone and they don't seem to have issues with it.
