> HI everyone. I seen my colon doctor last Friday. He told me that
the believes that I would benefit more from a ilestomy instead of a
colostomy with my condition. I really don't want to have a ilestomy
done. I called him back and he said that he would consider a
colstomy, but that he didn't know if it would work or not. The
surgery from the ileostomy is easier since he will be doing that
laproscopically instead of cutting me all the way open like he would
have to do for a colostomy. The ileostomy is very easily reversed if
someday something new comes out. The only think that I hate is that
it constantly runs into the bag. A colostomy doesnt do this. I
believe that a colostomy would work. Does any of you have problems
with constipation with a colostomy?
