Jackie,
My husband also had his colon removed,(due to Ulcerative Colitus) then the small
intestine connected. We almost lost him. He is doing fine now, but has chronic
diareah,(Ithink that I would rather have to colostomy bag.) He doesn't complain
much and I feel bad because it seems like I complain all the time with the
adhesion problems.
He went to a "famous Dr." to have this surgery. This surgeon operated on one of
our presidents. Unfortunately, my husbands small intestine got blocked after
the removal of his colon. He was in the hospital for almost a month. So I
learned that no matter what kind of Dr. we go to, and how good they are, things
can happen.
I wish you well,
Kel
