Hi, I am new to this site. I had a colostomy last March and have made out great. This was done because of chronic UC. They left the rectum with the idea I could have a reversal. I had pretty much made up my mind to not have a reversal because I like having the control I have now of bathroom breaks, etc. Problem a couple of weeks ago, I started having bloody mucus and feeling of urgency, thinking the UC is in the rectum now and going to GI tomorrow. Wanted to get your input about recovery, etc.
