Welcome, @mmbinnj. Recovery after a bowel resection is often discussed in the colorectal cancer support group, so I added your question to that group as well.

This is so rough, especially with the additional complication of c-diff and decal incontinence, not to mention pain. @bbarbiee @virgo1952 @gldmontana may have some tips and experiences to share with you.

Mmbinnj, dealing with these symptoms make time pass very slowly I'm sure. Your body has been and is going through a lot. I hope that time will also help the healing. Is getting the c-difficile under control the priority right now?
