Hello again guys (doing a few posts tonight sorry hehe)
I was just wondering ifi could have some feedback from people who have had thier anus and rectum removed. I will be getting a panproctocolectomy and ileostomy soon, and am interested in how they close up the gap left from the rectum. I read they can fill it with gauze and let it heal on its own (mf ouchies!) or they can sew it up. It must be so weird having this hole where your rectum was... How would they sew it up!
Anyways thanks heeps, this forum has been a lifesaver
