Reply to "J pouch and athletics"

Thank you! Yes he is a freshman in high school. Currently the plan is for him to have one surgery in March, then the second surgery in May and begin sports again in September.  He is very strong, healthy and we expect him to recover quickly.  About how long should he expect to be able to heal to the point of being able to control his bowel movements.  And di things like Imodium on game days help?  We are scheduled at Johns Hopkins and our surgeon seems very confident.  I’m just very apprehensive to rock the boat and change anything.  Prior to his colectomy it was a nightmare of medicine and bathroom visits.   About how often does pouchitis happen? Thank you All again for your help!
