My friend had a temporary iliostomy when he had rectal surgery in
Feb.'06. At the time the goal was to reverse it but since he has
developed mets in the liver and lungs. He is inoperable - there
are too many lesions. I don' t know if he'll ever be able to get
a reversal. Doesn't the iliostomy create dehydration from the
extra fluid loss? What is the longest anyone out there has had
one. Thanks!
