Hi all

I am awaiting my ileostomy reversal op date (stoma since August) and have just had a phone appointment where I was told that I would have to push fluids? through my stoma twice a day for 4-6 weeks (something about a catheter?!) before I could have my surgery. I'll admit I wasn't listening too clearly but I thought a reversal would be straightforward without any long prep needed.

I just want all this to be done, has anyone experienced this before or have the hopsital made a mistake!?
