Hi! Welcome! It's a great site. I found it after my surgery which was probably a good thing since some of the topics would have scared me!

DX UC 2005 when I was 37
Tried every drug and diet....all failed
Step 1- 6/25/10 (colectomy & J-pouch creation)
Step 2- 10/8/10 (take down)
Very pleased with my results.

Dave, have you learned how to use the search feature on this site yet. It's a great way to look things up immediatly by searching past posts. Cool

Hi Dave,

Welcome to the J-pouch Group. This is a great group of folks. It is the best place for j-pouchers (new and old pouchers alike) to come and share stories and get support. This site is a Godsend for me and I am sure countless others.
