@bc321 the scarring and constant reopening and healing of old wounds so quickly.
More specific breakdown (updated but similar as original Post):
• Surgery 1 (Attempted): Laparoscopic Sigmoidectomy.
Procedure failed/converted.
• Surgery 2 (Emergency): Open Sigmoidectomy with Ileostomy.
Performed because original surgeon was unavailable.
• Surgery 3 (Failed Reversal): Attempted Ileostomy Reversal. Failed.
• Surgery 4 (Final): Successful Colorectal Anastomosis (Descending-to-Rectal).
• Complication History (2016): Renal Ultrasound (March 8, 2016) showed "mild degree
of dilatation of the left renal pelvis," indicating early evidence of pelvic
compression/obstruction affecting the urinary tract. Caused sepsis, near fatal.
