This topic is about someone planning a colostomy reversal surgery after completing some important dental work. They have a detailed plan in place for their medical procedures and are sharing their journey with others who might be in similar situations. Here’s a breakdown of their plan and some supportive advice from others:

- The person has scheduled a two-step hospital stay for 2025. The first step is a pre-reversal colonoscopy to ensure everything has healed properly inside. The second step is the colostomy reversal surgery, which is planned for the following day. They expect to stay in the hospital for about a week after the surgery.

- Due to a condition called Polycythemia Vera, which has made their teeth brittle, they are prioritizing significant dental work before the surgery. This includes removing broken upper teeth and getting an upper plate.

- Many people in the community have offered words of encouragement and good health wishes. They are also interested in hearing updates after the surgery, as sharing experiences can be very helpful for everyone involved.

- One person shared their own experience, mentioning that they had a colostomy reversal a year ago. They reported that everything went smoothly and they have no regrets, which can be reassuring for anyone considering or preparing for a similar procedure.
