Reversal

This topic is about someone who has recently experienced a successful ostomy reversal after living with an ostomy bag for a year. They are also looking forward to a kidney transplant in the near future. Here are some key points and insights from their journey:

1. The individual had a 10-day hospital stay following the reversal surgery, which ended without any gastrointestinal complications, although they do have significant scarring.

2. They express optimism about their upcoming kidney transplant and stress the importance of taking personal responsibility in their health journey, likening it to being "the captain of the ship."

3. They acknowledge the importance of community support and express gratitude to forum members who helped them through challenging times.

4. They invite others to ask questions about their experience, indicating a willingness to share and help others who might be going through similar situations.

5. The individual later shares that their bowel movements are now excellent and trouble-free, reassuring others that there is "nothing to worry about."

6. Fellow community members offer congratulations, blessings, and encouragement, highlighting that success stories like this one provide hope and inspiration for everyone dealing with ostomy or reversal journeys.
