I have an incoming diverting colostomy and would like to know why you said that. The plan for my surgery is eventually to reverse it.

Thanks,
Claudio

I am considering ileal conduit surgery. I would like to hear from folks about whether you are glad/sad you did this, whatever issues/problems you may be having post-op and long term, what type of maintenance is required, etc. THANKS
