Can anyone tell me how I should be feeling after Iliostomy reversal surgery" the surgery was done because of diverticulitis, so bowel resection, bag for 3 months, and then 17 days ago, the reversal. I still don't feel right,,back ache and bladder doesn't feel right. Surgeon thought bladder infection, but antibiotics did nothing. I am an older menopausal lady so have had bladder discomfort before, but not like this. Should I be feeling better at this stage.? Still have very limited energy levels( can't go shopping etc) can only walk short distances without backache. I only feel ok when I'm sitting down. Does this sound right? I know my body has been through a lot, but this surgery was simpler than the first one,,no catheter etc. any advice please?
