Hey Man thanks for the video, I have the same issue, I'm getting it reversed on Jan 11 (can't wait) I liked that you showed your incision, was wondering what the stoma opening would look like after it was sewed closed. Looks pretty bad, Do you find that you go to the bathroom more often? I had 18" removed I worried about that.

yeah bro i have a question of you ,, i have the bag right now and want to get the reversal ,, but i have to pay off my doc first ,,, but i have been reading a lot on the net that people have been having trouble going ,,and its not the same as it was before ,, and that its keeping them up all night long ,, and wishing they had their bag back on again ,, cause they can't stop pooping,,, i want to know is that the case with you ,, or did you go back to being regular again ,, please let me know ,

This is a really good video. I am having reversal sugery next week and your video really helps put my mind at ease with what to expect. It took courage to make this video. Thanks

I also had a colostomy 3 years but it was reversed last year.
What's wondering me about your surgery is that the doctors didn't let you eat for many days. I already had to eat 1 day after surgery and a few days later I was allowed to eat proper food.
It is common practice in Dutch hospitals and they do this to stimulate colon activity shortly after surgery. They also stimulate you to leave the bed and walk. 5 days after surgery I was going home without any limitations in my diet.

Thank you so much for this video. I had emergency surgery 18 months ago and almost died ending up with a colostomy. I will be having my reversal surgery in about a month. I am so looking forward to it, Your video made me feel like I wasn't alone in this. Take care!!
