should I get a jpouch?

hi, I 19f got my ileostomy surgery 7 months ago. I still haven’t got my appointment with a surgeon to discuss jpouch surgeries yet (love the nhs) but I don’t know what to do. I’ve gotten really used to my bag honestly, like it doesn’t bother me all that much and I got my surgery only 20 days after being diagnosed with UC so the fact I’ve come to terms and got through that hell of a surgery I just like don’t know if I can do it again. And I’m happy!! But it’s also like what if? If u get me

And I’m a 19 yr old girl, single university student and like yes im a insecure about if anybody will ever like love and accept me lol and I want to wear low rise jeans and feel like a normal person without having people stare at me . But like I don’t know if they are good enough reasons to go through two more surgeries lol. Anyway just wondering about people’s experiences with a jpouch and freedom they got bag vs jpouch , especially if you are uk based !!
