Reply to "Incontinence from Anus"

Hi Diana,

I am very sorry to hear of your troubles. I am confused as to why stool has been coming out of your bum if the jpouch has been disconnected via a ileostomy.

as to whether you can sue for malpractice who knows?

once we sign that surgical consent we are signing away our lives. My understanding is that if a doctor follows accepted medical practices its hard to sue since surgical outcomes are not guaranteed.

My further understanding is that removal of pouch and anus are tough surgical procedures and I personally would never do it since I think the next major surgery will kill me.

my humble advice is that you should focus all of your energies on finding a GI/Surgical team that can evaluate you situation and give you the best medical advice and care so that you can get beyond this hellish situation you find your self in. You can sue later on, but please expend your energy on getting well. We are sending prayers and good thoughts your way.
