Does anyone have information or experience regarding ileostomy reversal? I am scheduled for reversal surgery the end of this month.
My rectum and anus are intact, but I only have a sigmoid colon stump. Are there any forums covering this topic?

You may find information at the United Ostomy Association of America. Or I am sure someone here at the Mayo clinic might have an answer. I have met folks that have had reversals but I am not an expert. My Colostomy is permanent.
