Congratulations on your reversal, keep checking in. I am still trying to decide if I want to go through with it. The side effects seem extreme versus the minor pain from the stoma to me, but I would like to hear more.

I just wanted to tell all the users of this site that I really love having the opportunity to express my feelings here. I'm positive that many feel the same. I wish that all here come out of the experience you have here will be like mine. Support and understanding from others with issues similar like each other will help us all and give the relief we all crave, well, I'm selfish. I'm here because I need support. And I find enough here to help in the tough times. Thank you. I really mean it.

Hello RenfromTexas,
As someone getting the surgery in a few days, I must ask—what is an "Extreme Poop"?
Cheers!

Ren, remind me what type of reversal you had when you get a chance?

Ren - thanks for the update - those of us who are fortunate enough to have the choice of reversal, but so far have opted out, appreciate your return to this site with updates. Thanks, jb
