Hi there,

Does anyone have experience having the J-pouch surgery after a couple years with an ileostomy? If so can you provide feedback?

It’s been 2+ years since my temporary ileostomy, and I want to explore getting a j-pouch. I’m hoping I haven’t waited too long for a successful outcome. Any advice or feedback is much appreciated!

Hi Nick I had my ileostomy for 5 years and then had my jpouch redo and reversed! Had some issues such as ileus where intestine paralyzed. After 5 months of hospitalization with A few medical challenges it has now been close to 3 years with my reversal! Need to watch my food intake but all is good! Wish you luck ! What was the reason for your 2 year wait! Mine was abscesses at Jpouch! If you have any questions I’ll be happy to answer them !
