I am a 19 yo male living in Mandurah Western Australia and HAving an Ileostomy on the 5th of june due to Crohn;s disease. Just wondering if anyone can offer any advice or tips as I am very frightened and depressed about the whole thing at the moment.

and has anyone got any advice on dating with a iliostomy and all the associated problems with having to show the person eventually etc.

Hi lbw, I live in Perth :) I'm 40 years old and have had my ileo for 31 years due to UC. Email me at [email protected] and I'll send you my phone number if you like so we can chat :)
