Reply to "Functional pouch obstruction/catheter emptying"

Hi all,

I had my defecography today-it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. My pouch is literally laying sideways. The radiologist said it should be more vertical but it is horizontal and pulled over somewhere it shouldn't be. He said I'll need to discuss the results with my surgeon but seemed to think this was very useful information. I haven't tried the catheter yet as I have to wait for my 2 tests and follow-up with my surgeon as I don't have the equipment or quite know how to do it. Anyone else with this problem have a horizontal pouch problem? I'm guessing this positioning is why I am in so much pain all the time and having trouble with emptying....

Thanks.
