been to see gastroenterologist

Hi
I went to see my gastroenterologist yesterday. I saw one of his registrars, Dr. Sheppard, I saw him last week during my unexpected stay in hospital so the appointment was not really necessary I suppose but I went anyway. Thought we may talk about the options for when I no longer this ileostomy but this was not really spoken about. He suggested that I should push to get the hernia fixed before the reversal and I was pleased he did really. I would like it fixed as it is causing me some discomfort and it is a pain having to go careful with what I do all the time. I was not planning on having to cope with this as well as the ileostomy. I am seeing Lynne or Natalie, the stoma team, this afternoon about the hernia belt, it finally arrived, and I will mention Dr. Sheppard's comments to them.
