Reply to "Second j pouch?"

AmyHMember

Hi! I just got my second J-pouch in September. I have a temporary ileostomy right now while it heals.
Long story short, I went to Cleveland Clinic for a second opinion after having my takedown on 7/12/22 I suffered with lots of pain, unable to empty, blood and burning. I was told it was pouchitis. When I got to Cleveland Clinic, they realized my j-pouch was twisted 360 degrees and was leaking. I had open surgery to remove my current J-pouch, make a new one and now have a temporary double barrel.
I cannot recommend my surgeon Dr. Holubar enough. He is amazing and took great care.
