I woke up in the middle of the night last night and felt wet. Like I had wet my pants! When I went to the bathroom my undrewear was full of blood. I thought I had started my period but then there has been no blood today. Has anyone else had this happen to them? Is this something I should be concerned about?

I would keep an eye on it but most likely it's nothing to worry over if it only happened one time. When it happened to me after TD, it didn't turn out to be anything. If it makes you feel better, call your surgeon's office and let them know. Hard to tell what it could be.
But, if you notice it again, definitely let your surgeon know. Smiler

Ok so it happened again today. I bent over to pick something up and felt like a peed a little. when I went to the bathroom there was bloody mucous. The thing is I don't know where it is coming from. It kind of feels like it is coming from my vagina. Anyone?????

Well, I'd say you should call your surgeon in the morning and let them know. In the meantime, stick a tampon in and see if it is coming from your vagina. That is an easy test.
Some bleeding is considered normal, so it could be nothing, but I think you should do some more investigating!

How are you doing? Did you call your surgeon?

After my j-pouch surgery I had some blood and pinkish mucus discharges . My surgery was on June 6, 2007 and now I have only the mucus. I too was concerned so I either emailed my surgeon or spoke with his nurse. I do wear a light days panty liner and change it as needed. I did get a red rash down there, something similar to diaper rash because of the moisture. You may need a moisture barrier. Ask your surgeon about any suggestions.

I don't mean to state the obvious or ask a stupid question, but could it be that you're having a combination of light, heavy and irregular bleeding because you've gone through hefty surgery? My periods disappeared for several months, and when they came back, they were all over the place. One minute I'd bleed really heavily, next minute I was bone dry. Then I'd get spotting and pink mucus. It was like being pre-teen again. It's starting to stabilise now, if that's any consolation.

Thanks for the comments. I called my surgeon and his nurse said that it was probably not something they did because he spicifically wrote in my surgery notes that the jpouch staples were far away from the vagina. she said it was probably coming from my uterus and that if I was still having problems in a week call my GYN. I had an ultrasound in March and they said that they saw a cyst, so I am wondering if maybe that burst and that is what is causing this. Who knows???
