>>20400636Depends on why the colon was removed in the first place, like disease, cancer or an injury.
A lot of cases now can get what's called an "Ileo-anal pouch" or J pouch for short.
In my case I was diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis and had a total colectomy 10 years ago. I was on a bag for about a year and a half until the J pouch surgery.
Now I just shit every 3-4 hours.
