Hi everyone
I just found out I'm going to have to have my bladder removed after a return of bladder cancer. My focus is on being able to get back to my very active lifestyle of road biking, downhill skiing, running and hiking and so I want to hear from those with continent (internal pouch) and incontinent (external pouch) urostomas on the pros and cons of each for these activities. I have a couple of months until surgery will happen so I'd love to be able to hear from you, talk with you, learn from your experience. I plan to be highly active for several decades to come, so how can I optimize that by making the best surgical choice. Thanks! I look forward to hearing from you.
