hi im christine from liverpool uk ,i developed a parastomil hernia ,and was in agony,i went in hospital and asked for a reversal while i was there which they done,it was a realy bad experience for me but thank god i got out after 13 days without getting mrsa ,any one who wants to ask me about the opp is free to add me to there list ..silver_spoon50 psits 4 weeks today but my wounds still need dressing every day ,i think it was much easier getting the iliostomy than the reversal and hernia repair.im 46 by the way so im not that young lol.every pain i get now i think omg my colon wats left of it.okbye for now christine.
