Hello, 5 yrs ago I had colon resection and the following week I had ileostomy surgery. The reversal was done 11 months later. As a result of these surgeries, the adhesions caused multiple bowel obstructions. Last year I had surgery to remove the adhesions. My belly is a mess; uneven & saggy. Am I a candidate for a Tummy Tuck?
I have a very slow digestive tract and is want to get a colonic hydro cleanse a few days before my tummy tuck. I have to rely on high fiber suppliments like flaxseed and phyllum husk each day to be regular. Would the colonic hydro cleanse be advantegeous?
I am having a colonscopy next week to rule out Chron's for a recent hospitalization for abdominal pain with findings if ileitis on CT. I am worried that this may be a contrai dication for a tummy tuck, which I am planning for next year. Is it?
Scheduled for Tummy Tuck, Lipo, and Brazillian Butt Lift on October 9..just was referrd by primary care physician to have colonoscopy done on October 8. Is there a waiting period in between the procedures, and if so, how long should I wait? Thank you
My husband had a colon resection removing 12 in of colon plus appendix. 9 days Post-op he started 'leaking' and the sterry strips looked yucky. One became very loose and when we removed it, the leak flowed more. If he sits to use the bathroom (no straining) or stands it soaks a new gauze pad in about a minute. Doesn't smell but somewhat thin and slightly yellow/pink. How much is too much? Thank you!
35 yr old caucasian female, 5ft, 133lbs, hx of keloid scars, 2 c-sections, Crohns dx otherwise healthy. Thick through abdominal area. Is it possible to have needed colon resection by general surgeon (removing approx 10 inches of combined small & large intestines d/t narrowing) & then close w/ tummy tuck +/- liposuction by plastic surgeon? I want to combine procedures & minimize likelihood of scars. Low transverse is fine, avoid vertical incision scars. What are risks? Is this ever done?
