Urinating after takedown surgery

February 6, 2009

You wouldn’t think takedown surgery would affect your bladder, but it does. For a little while, anyway. When I started using my j-pouch I had slight problems with urination. This video covers my experiences with urinating during my first six weeks after the takedown surgery.

Keep fighting,

  1. Hi
    I have that problem at the moment, i find it hard to urinate without empting my j pourch, any advise will help. Thank you


    • Like I said in the video, when I tried to urinate I put my hand under my butt to help keep things closed. Once I got the stream started then it was easier to hold things back.

    It sucks.
    has it gotten better because i just got diagnosed with this
