2 leaks at staple line...revision/reversal needed

due to the fact that one is going into my body cavity and the other is flowing into my reminent stomch. I am almost 4 yrs post op and have been told that I could leave it alone as long as I can handle the pain because it is too risky. I have been in a lot of pain and had lots of bowel problems. I guess I need to know if anyone has had this problem and what was the result of having revision or reversal done? Is it worth it? I think any leak shouldn't be allowed but I really don't know. I tried to get a second opinion, but it seems that no one wants to touch me. Any advice?
