Hi, I had my reversal surgery almost 2 years ago (February).
at yhe beginning was difficult, pain, pain, pain. Then it got better. But the last year it has been a nightmare, pain, constipation, living around going to toilet, if I go, when I go.
the last 10 days have been horrible. I had shingles in my hear (very painful) I have been taking antiviral so constipation, but not normal constipation, awful, pain all over the place. Piles so sitting down was painful.
suddenly I realised what king of future I have. I can’t take any medication (if lost half of my colon) anything I take affects me. I’m 51, still 20 years more to live, but what kind of life!!
sex is out of the picture, eating what I like gone, never know if the day will be a good day or I’ll spend our in the toilet (one day I timed it, 16 hours on and off to empty my bowel.
plus my husband is getting fed up of me (I don’t blame him), I’m not sexy or pretty any more, we can have sex, most of the time I’m in pain. What kind of wife is that???
