Made it through surgery woohoo.

Hi all,

Had my op on 6th and luckily all was straightforward. Awaiting path results to see if I need more chemo or if I can just have the ileostomy reversed in three months time.

Although I knew it would happen I still wasn't prepared for my out of action bottom to start functioning to pass mucous - most uncomfortable and unpleasant but it's settling down now.

Quick question - I've passed two tiny staples today - I'm guessing this is normal, but will check tomorrow when I go for a check up.

Must go empty my bag.................

i had a ileostomy and the reversal I know it suck having to wear the bag and deal with all those issues but it works and im walking proof of that. In the end it's all worth it You can hardly see the scars anymore
