Reply to "MY J-POUCH HAS DESTROYED MY LIFE!!"

im sorry that you had to endure such suffering.its a familiar story.i had my reversal done in 2006 and my j-pouch has been a very painful,miserable experience.i had chronic strictures,6 fistulas,2 j-pouch skin tags and excoriated rectal skin.the only thing that helped was narcotic pain killers which worked for a few years before i got tolerant to them and got more sick.the last 2 years have been so bad that i just had my j-pouch disconnected.i got my life back with a end ileostomy.its not the outcome i wanted,but its better than being in severe chronic pain,constantly in the bathroom,and unable to eat a normal diet.basically i could only function with working pain meds,calmoseptine and lidocaine ointments.i had severe burning pain going up my spine into my shoulders and chest,more specifically my left arm shook from all the residual pain.i was a slave to my j-pouch and the hospital.you can either go with a conversion surgery and an ileostomy surgery.ive had enough,and it seems you have too.
