I had my reversal September 9. I am so happy! Saw my doctor yesterday... I have been released... Yup, I can start working out, go in the jacuzzi... no limitations- just listen to my body.
Although I still have too many bowel movements a day so she said to take Imodium before every meal. So we'll see as far as that!
But let me tell you I do not miss Humpty!
Oh sure Humpty...........rub it in, why don't you?Seriously, that's awesome. Now get the hell out of here and get on with your life!!!All that ostomate stuff will seem like a bad dream in the not-to-distant future. Glad another one escaped the Island of Misfit Toys!!

Yeah a year ago I wouldn't have known what to ask to find out I had a parastomal hernia. The only reason I knew about them is from this site. Thank goodness for this site. Otherwise I would still be clueless. If I hadn't though from stuff on here to ask my surgeon about having a hernia, then I would have never had the CT and I would have never known that she should have known about it a year ago.
Congrats!! Good to hear positive feedback. I'm scheduled for Dec 8th. Hope to report the same successful on mine too.
Congratulations...that's awesome!!! Good for you! I am happy for you!!
Very happy to hear it went well for you!!!
You had an ileostomy, right? For how long? I will also have mine reversed at some point, hopefully in 3 months.
Congratulations. I had a reversal then suffered for years before deciding what the heck, give me my stoma back. Lol. Take it slow, please, and don't overdo yourself.
