Hey, I had my ostomy surgery on 7/28/21. My colostomy is permanent due to cancer. My stoma is an innie and flush to my skin, which has made things difficult for me (leaking, blowouts, consistently stool on skin, burning/painful skin). Has anyone had an ostomy revision surgery and can share their experience? Time in the hospital? Recovery time? And just generally what to expect. Thank you.
