Hi, I have had an ileostomy since 2011, when I was 9 yrs old. I'm now in my last year of university and have to have a full proctocolectomy.
I was wondering if anyone whose had to have one can let me know their expereince with it, the recovery, any complications (especially from females).
As well as any advice, I plan to graduate in the spring so I'm really trying to not let this affect that.

My ileostomy has been in place since I was nine years old, in 2011. I need to get a full proctocolectomy done, and I'm in my final year of college.
Could anyone who has had one please share their story with me? I'm particularly interested in hearing about the recovery process and any issues that may have arisen, particularly from women. basketball stars
