Reply to "notes from a k-poucher of 40 years"

thank you for the time duration encouragement!!  wow, 40 years

i'm just 2 1/2 years out of k pouch surgery.  so far--aside from a recent valve revision caused by a hernia--my life is greatly improved over a failed j pouch.  i also do yoga, walk, mucho pt exercises, bike, sail and the such.  i do wear an abdominal support when exercising.  and i irrigate w almost every intubation.  so go figure that out.  then again i had terrible pouchitis and other bacterial problems that prompted the good nurses at cleveland clinic to suggest more irrigation rather than less.

also a thanks to all those who contribute to this site because you all have helped me manage various problems along the way.  lets all stay healthy!  janet
