Beanie,
I had not read these forum posts before today - much goes back to Oct 2010. I am so glad you asked what happened. I would love to have updates for all of these people.
My emergency surgery was Aug 2010. No complications before or since. I decided almost immediately I would not seek a reversal. There are many reasons. My ostomy is just a non-issue in my life. Some other things are issues but have no options.
I see how troubled many people are with their ostomies and am interested in each of these people that have posted. I would love to hear how they are doing now and also would like to hear from others with similar issues.
Again, thanks for asking.

Get an opinion from a major medical facility like the Mayo Clinic or similar high-profile facility. You can often make appointments online and you don't need referrals most of the time, only a copy of your medical records.

Had reversal. Didn't work. Complete obstruction of colon. Will have bag rest of life. Have no problem with that. Good luck. Most people have no problem with reversal.
