Reply to "UK J Pouchers"

Paul HMember

Hi Tony, There is an excellent book written by Zarah Perry-Woodford entitled Ileo-Anal Pouch Surgery for Ulcerative Colitis A Guide for Patients available from St. Marks Academic Institute in Harrow, UK, the leading UK hospital for pouch surgery. It costs £10 & you have to contact Janice Ferrari the course manager at St. Marks to buy it.

I realise you don't have or had UC but it gives a comprehensive insight into managing stoma care, diet, lifestyle, support & practical assistance. I wish I had read it before my surgery as I had to self learn having had surgery in Barcelona without much insight into what to expect apart from "there will be some tough times ahead". 2 years on I'm fine & glad the surgery was carried out so well.

Good luck

Paul
