Reply to "Ileostomy"

I dont have chrons but I also have a loop ileostomy which I'm keeping (and i have a jpouch which is giving me a bit of an attitude at the moment 😂). I kept having problems with Desmoid tumours causing monthly bowel obstructions and since having my ileostomy back I've had little to no bowel obstructions. My stoma has given me part of my life back and while having the stoma is seen as a negative by some, I look at it in a positive way.

If having a jpouch is causing you daily problems and is preventing you from doing things, or you've tried just about everything to help with your chrons and nothing is working, an ileostomy is a good last resort. There is Nothing wrong with having an ileostomy, but I appreciate everyone has different views on it.
