Reply to "Rectal discharge"

Are you sure they removed your J pouch? This sounds like what I had with a disconnected J pouch and an end ileo, except no pain.  If your J pouch was removed, and you don't have a "barbie butt" you should have at most a tiny bit of rectum plus your anus. That is what I have, maybe total of 2 to 3 inches. I have a tiny bit of mucus which doesn't amount to anything really. A disconnected J pouch or if they left too much can and often does get what is called diversion colitis that is very hard to treat, I had to get my J pouch removed to end it.

The other possibility I can think of is, that makes sense with your pain is that you have an abscess leaking out. This can be treated. Probably need a CT to confirm.
