Hi guys,
I've currently got an ileostomy and was hoping to have the reversal to construct the j pouch maybe next year, I've been scoped and they've told me I have ulcerative proctitis in the remaining part I am still getting rectal bleeding to, I just wanted to know how this effects me having the j pouch created and can you still have a j pouch if you have proctitis?
I'm just so worried because I was supposed to see my consultant today but when I got to my appointment he wasn't there and I saw a junior registrar who firstly just said you can't have the reversal (but my consultant has always said I can) then she went on to tell me that she doesn't know much about this area and j pouches :/ she also failed to acknowledge that I'm pregnant at the moment, and I'm 34 weeks gone!!
