Reply to "Re: Floppy J Pouch"

I've had mine for 27 years and now have straining and am not fully digesting a lot of food. I had a scope done and found out the pouch outlet is less than 5mm, smaller than a straw, due to scar tissue. I have a consulting in November to determine next steps (pouch revision or removal). Honestly, at this point I'm prepared for either. It's a been a good run for 27 years with this pouch and I've never been limited by the pouch. I kind of expected issues after 50 years of age. I just want to be able to sleep well, socialize, exercise and enjoy my days so whatever gets me there the fastest will be my preferred outcome. I hope you're not nervous about the idea of surgery as it may be the best way to get whatever outcome you desire.Keep us posted on the diagnoses and process!
