Hello, I am looking for other ladies who have had APR surgery with a permanent colostomy and hysterectomy at the same time. I want to know what recovery was like and any tips you can share.

No help on the woman part of that, but you won't be sitting for a while.

Hi. Welcome.

I just saw a thread from "reversedinflorida".

Check it out. She went through the same thing. If you can't find her, go to the menu bar above. Select topics or current threads.

I had a colostomy reversal and hysterectomy at the same time. It was a very smooth procedure... and I had a great recovery... honestly, which I attribute to the fact that the uterus and ovaries were taken out as they were causing me so much pain.
