Hey All,
Just got back from NYC, where I unerwent an experiment operation. The Dr's from Boston, Dartmoth, and MANY others after a year of trying were unable to treat my severe Iliostomy output which was caused from a simple surgery gone wrong. I was able to find a Dr that was willing to take the risk along with myself to TRY something new...I knew my risk going in however knew if it worked i'd not only be helping myself but others like me who were told " Nothing more we can do"..The operation was a success and I feel GREAT! They reversed the Iliostomy to a Colostomy which the other Dr's said could NOT be done as the Colon was not working...

Wow...way cool! Thanks for being a pioneer in this field!

Did diet effect your output? I joke that I have a Sigmoid Ileostomy. Techinically it's a sigmoid colostomy and I don't even have an ileum, nor a couple other chunks. When I fed it like a cole- all I got was tons of liquid. (I can loose 9 pounds in 8hrs from fluid loss.) When I started feeding it like an ileo- things slowed WAY down. I came across the fedding/nutritional info in a British Nursing Journal when researching a paper for class.

That is great, so pleased it has worked for you, well done! Rach xx
