@pamelasue I had a colonic intersposition in 2006. I too had a bag on my neck, a feeding tube for months and a bad case of MRSA. i had over 78 operations and a new reconstruction last fall. my pain is constant on my left side and made worse since I had some ribs removed that were killed by MRSA.
I still have diarrhea all the time and at night. i am able to make it to the bathroom. have you looked at fecal transplant to help or taking something to slow down your bowel like immodium?
i have bad reflux at night and sometimes wake up in vomit on my pillow. any suggestions?

how old is your husband..would u like my number to talk to him
He is 72 but prior to the botched surgery he was very active, golfing , mowing 2.5 acres grass, walking the dog, and plowing snow in winter where we live. so he was a very young 72 years
checking in to see how your husband is doing?
Husband had colon interposition over 5 years ago. Does get bouts of low sugar. Trying to figure out if related to colonic interposition. Does anyone else have that problem?

I still drink a lot of Gatorade every day. How about eggs. I eat a lot of them and very easy to get down.
It did take me a while to get things to improve. I had MRSA infection and had a drain. Unfortunately it has been a constant battle for me but I try and have little things as goals.
Depression is a big thing. I suggest professional help. Also I sleep using a edge to keep my head up. I have terrible reflux some nights and wake up vomiting
