I've had colitis since 2011 which has caused many embarrassing accidents over the years. In 2017, I was diagnosed with ovarian cancer which had spread to my sigmoid colon. I woke up with the bag. After chemo and hysterectomy, in 2017 all has been clear with cancer. I was considering a reversal but am afraid the colitis would still cause me trouble and no control. Has anyone else had this problem?
