diverticulitis incontinence

Diverticulitis hot of nowhere. I fell down the stairs, was life flighted to UH main Campus, and had multiple Harkin’s procedures. Gutted thrice, like a catfish. I’ll be with ostomy for rest of my life.

It’s been 40 days. Weak as a kitten I’m just in to rehab but still draining.

They equipped me with a urine condom and my body is having a hard time trying going back to normal urination. I recall reading about valves installed by surgery. Anybody been where I am now?

I’ll see my urologist in a few weeks. Thought it might be worth discussing. In for a penny, in for a pound.

Thanks, as always.
