I'm so sorry to hear about these situations shared here. I'm due to have a distal to ileal anastomosis followed by a rectopexy - latter for my rectal prolapse and all of it for my extreme slow transit constipation / functional colon disorder. My surgeon states the rectopexy is a very straight forward procedure that due to nerve sensitivity may be more or less successful but should mostly work and indicated no risks. I have huge fears of needing a bag or having incontinence ongoing from these procedures. I came to the forum hoping to find hope. It's mainly horror stories unfortunately for all of us here . I wonder though - does it work out well for many people and because they are well and busy living their lives they don't join forums such as these to share their stories? 🤷🏻

I hope you find a good solution , a good surgeon and that you will heal well and whole ❤️
