Hello everyone my name is Stephanie and i live in Ontario, Canada and i am hoping to have surgery in Guelph.  My dilemma is this...i currently have a lower anterior colostomy from diverticulitis, it is reversible however not until i lose weight.  Does anyone out there know whether i would qualify for any type or bariatric surgery?  I am having a hard time finding any information on the internet about my situation. Any information you all can give me would be a great help to me.  Thanks in advance to all *****ply..

all the best
Stephanie

I don't know of any reason a colostomy would jeep you from having any form of WLS that you choose. None of them involve the large intestine.
