Reply to "Can't get my catheter through the valve..."

Kara FredMember

My kpouch valve has slipped twice and I have had it since 2015. I also had a catheter in and wore an osteomy bag until I could see my surgeon. So far both slippages needed a valve redo which as you may know is surgical & 4-6 weeks of recovery. I love my kpouch but Dr. Dietz said I am a 'slipper' ... so my valve may slip again (both slips were caused by ?, but they both came off the abdominal wall). I hope you can get it resolved soon! Thinking of you...Kara
