Ilestomy

I've had a J-pouch for 17 years and in that time haven gone through normal boughts of pouchitis. I was recently hospitalized after losing half of my hemoglobin and referred to Stanford to have the pouch removed. Apparently this ulceration is at the fold of the pouch where the intestine is stitched back to back and not treatable. I'm not really happy about the idea of loosing this pouch. Has anyone out there had a similar situation.
