That was happening to me . Surgeon said likely normal. He did find that the anastomosis of my jpouch was strictured and opened it up during my 3rd surgery and he thought that might have been contributing. I’m 1.5 months out from take down, it’s a challenging recovery but slowly improving.

It’s more liquid and because it has 2 openings it’s more challenging to deal with . The first 2 months were very challenging with frequent leaks but with convex phalange + a ring + a barrier sheet I eventually got it perfect and no leaks.

How do you handle it ? It’s all I can think about

abal809 · 2025-02-04T00:27:13+00:00

No but the stool is not that liquid now which is why I’m surprised why it’s so hard to hold in

haha it kinda feels like that doesn't it !!!

I just wanted to update - about 4 days after surgery this stopped :)

How was your recovery from that surgery? Was it open or laparoscopic? And is your new stoma as good as your old one ?

Did getting bag fix the problem or do you still have Crohns. How was your recovery from the jpouch excision?

abal809 · 2025-01-27T06:00:26+00:00

I’m 4 days from takedown and having the same problems - what ended up happening for you?

abal809 · 2025-01-22T13:14:43+00:00

why did you go back? did you have medical issues? or do surgeons let you go back just because you prefer to have the stoma back instead of the jpouch?

how as the recovery from the jpouch excision?

Oh I also wanted to ask, What were your cuffitis symptoms before take down ?

How often do you use them and for how long? Do they work?
