Reply to "Has anyone been hospitalized for total blockage of their J-pouch?"

I had my final surgery in October 2011. I have had two major total obstructions. Both were from raw vegetables and adhesions. First one was very similar to yours, no surgery but 6 days in hospital. Second, surgery that was tough to heal from it. I cannot eat any leafy vegetables. If I eat salad it has to be iceberg lettuce because it digests easier. I’m always aware of what I eat but that doesn’t always stop these things from happening.
I have had six major surgeries so just imagine the scar tissue! Plus, I have a huge hernia! Life goes on but I would love to sit down at a huge salad bar and pig out!
By the way, I was a vegetarian when I got sick! I have learned to eat chicken and bacon! Lol Best wishes for you!
