OMG, what a difference a bidet makes! I'm still dealing with residual rectal and cheek pain from going so much and so often after my ostomy reversal, but boy oh boy! I've only used it twice as it was just installed, but I can tell it will make a hell of a difference in the future. The review I read on the website said it was purchased by a guy for his girlfriend who has perianal Crohn's like me, and she has had fewer infections and a better quality of life since installing it. There are some on Amazon too that have great reviews.

I totally agree, they're awesome! I had one for one bathroom and in the other, I installed a sprayer and it was a total game changer for me. I take my sprayer with me every move!! Will never go without one again!

If I was a relative newbie with an ostomy, I have no doubt that this site would be very helpful to me. The members are quick to respond to questions and issues and they are filled with experience. When I joined, I already had a lifetime with an ostomy, so I just regard it as a place to meet and communicate with other folks similarly situated. Either way, it is a good site.

Maybe the title should be 'Everyone who gets a reversal should get a bidet'... no?
;O)
