Reply to "J Pouch Removal stories"

Richard, I just had my perm ileostomy last year but didn't remove the pouch since I was too sick at the time.  I was determined to remove it at first but now I'm ok with keeping it for a while.  Until it gives me real trouble.  Yes, I have some mucus from the bottom. I can control it ok now but at first it was a little odd.  I have also pooped from my bottom and the dr says that is pretty common on occasion also.  Occasionally I feel the same pain as I had when it was in use but it's never as intense as in the past   Overall I'm extremely happy with my health with the perm ileo and j pouch still in tact   

 

I also would like to hear the experience of those that have the j pouch removed and how long it took to heal.
