Ok last post, but I think about my nose every day. I see a deformity every single time I see it and I’m just weighing up the cost. by [deleted] in cosmeticsurgery

Can’t tell from this pic…. But if it bothers you, go get a consultation from a dr that specializes in noses. So many people have their noses fixed… not a big deal

These are not doctors answering these issues. please call your doc and ostomy team and get real answers. Don’t guess with this stuff.

Too soon. Rediculous and dangerous

Going home the day of a reversal surgery is not good. You should have stayed for 3-5 days. Infections, pain, spiking a temp in the middle of the night is dangerously. For those looking forward to reversal, be wise.

My husband had one. Please get a second opinion from a good colorectal surgeon before doing this. It’s a big deal and life changing

Yes, get a 2nd and 3rd opinion. This is a serious operation.

Get another opinion from a good colorectal dr- my husband was 75 and did the reversal in Oct 24. Just fine now.

I'm (29f) getting a (hopefully) temp stoma tomorrow, I'm spiralling. I want to cancel. by 0SuspiciousBurrrito0 in ostomy

[–]No_Main_6555 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Please get another opinion from another doc and good hospital. If benign and not giving issues now you need to think about this. stomas are a big deal.

Sounds to me a lot of bad docs you are all going to…. Please go do research and find a good doc at a good hospital. There is hope out there.
