Hi Whacky I’ve attached a link to an old post but if you type APR or abdominal perineal resection in the search box at the top of the screen then it will bring up other posts?
I’m going to tag Gtray to see if they’re still around too. I didn’t have this operation but it is a big one and recovery will take a while. Can you get in touch with your colorectal support nurse for a chat?
Take care
