New forum for stoma reversal and LARS discussions

Hi Artsie    i found what LARS is  google is good   TB123

I am not sure if this is something readily available everywhere but I had a sacral nerve implant in 2018, after years of struggle with severe LARS and although it isn’t a “cure” I think it has helped me live a more normal life, at least to some extent. In Australia they are being used more widely, than before, but I don’t know that many people with one so I can’t say how successful they are across a wider cross section of rectal cancer survivors. You do need regular access to a good technician after the implant though as the settings do need updating and tweaking. It certainly isn’t the first option post reversal but if after struggling with severe LARS for 3 years post reversal I was willing to give it a go so it might be worth a conversation with your colorectal surgeon
