Reply to "Jpouch issues"

chiromancer,

Those loop ileostomies are problematic. Mine - after second surgery - sprayed fecal matter directly back onto the skin - it was aimed back at me, rather than outward. Not uncommon.

It lead to frequent seal failure and a fungal infection, plus almost weekly need to "burn" granulomas around the edge with silver nitrite. Ouch.

I wouldn't want a loop again, that's for sure. I'd rather risk a stricture and have a clean end ileo, if I had a choice.
