Hi everyone. I've been trolling the posts to get some info. Huge shock when I had an emergency Hartman's on September 9th due to diverticulitis. In hospital for 3 weeks with an n/g tube for most of that. My surgeon has now agreed to try a reversal robotically, but he has frightened me to death with all the stuff that can go wrong! I am hoping to hear from you guys who have been through this procedure, hopefully successfully, and how the experience went. Thank you in advance.
