Bowel Resection for Crohn’s

Posted by kcarl54 @kcarl54, Feb 4, 2022

I have been scheduled for a bowel resection but I am very hesitant because there’s a good chance I will end up with an ileostomy bag. Has anyone ever had this surgery and what was the outcome. I am feeling pretty good and have been for quite some time and only have inflammation in a small area of my small bowel so I don’t know if I should take the chance of doing this or just continue on as I have been. Any information would be appreciated.

If your feeling good and the Dr. says it's OK for now, I would only have surgery as a last resort. Never have surgery if you don't have to.
