Re: J pouch /Rectum removal

Hi, was wondering if I could have some advice off people who have gone through the j pouch removal.

I’m 2 and a half weeks post removal. Stomach is healing ok and stoma is, well bring a very noisy new stoma (hope this settles down, previous ones haven’t been this loud).

My biggest issue is my bottom! Incision scabbed over really nicely, but over the past 5 days the scab has fallen off. Today I woke up and went downstairs and before I knew it I had mucus and blood pouring out of a small area of my rectum, literally a puddle of it on the floor. Was coming from the bottom of my rectum, near my testicles. Is the normal? It had a bit of a odour too!

Bit worried.

It doesn't sound normal. At least I never had a discharge but it took a while to heal. My stoma NP checked out my bottom every time I went to see her. It sounds like an infection to me as evidenced by the the smell and bloody discharge.

Please see your stoma/nurse/WOC soon.
