Reply to "Trying to decide between a permanent ostomy or a j-pouch"

aimee well wishes from me also. i recall the excitement when i had my take down. had the bag for a year, yes i could do it--even did an assignment in kosova in 2000- but preferred the j and now the k.

mkat--are they going to build the j pouch at this time? talk to your doctor about that. most do. also, you'll need to keep up with pelvic floor exercises in order retain control when the j is functioning. big decisions ahead. get as much info as possible. janet
