I was just wondering if anyone has had an
operation or knows of one where they
remove the bowel from the illeum to the
transverse colon. If so do you need a poo
bag? And how long was you in hospital?
Any other details would be swell, as I am
undergoing such operation in february
thanks

I've had my colon removed and now have a
permanent ileostomy.
I have been in hospital a lot with my
crohn's and when l had my colon removed it
was a 2 week stay.
You have probably had the surgery by now
and l hope it all went well.
