Reply to "Second j-pouch"

Hi. I had my J-pouch 21 years ago after suffering from ulcerative colitis. The last few months it hasn’t been working properly and after several tests it appears to have a twist in it and is very dilated. My consultant has given me a couple of options. One being removing the j-pouch and forming a new one, although there are risks involved. Would love to hear if anyone has had similar experiences or had a 2nd j-pouch.

Hello Jules,

I was wondering what happened with your surgery. I am in a somewhat similar position and have had so much trouble deciding what to do. My pouch failed after 15 years.

Cheers,
Sarah
