I've had 3 ostomy reversals
Geez Rob, that's a lot! As far as the surgeon acknowledging LARS, I wouldn't go that far - he didn't name it that, just warned DH that there would be issues after reversal, such as clustering and feeling the constant need to go. You're the second person mentioning enemas (Utagal7 did too), that's good to know.
DH had a rough weekend, his ileus was so bad they intubated him (nose) to remove fluid accumulation in his intestines (after a scan confirmed that was the problem). Very unpleasant to say the least, but it did the trick of "kick starting" his guts and the tube was removed this morning. The bag is filling up again. DH will *very* carefully start eating again, liquid diet to start with (yogurt, soups); hopefully he can finally come home this week!
