UTI's the next step

Hi, some of you may remember me posting a while back about all my problems with UTI's. Well after almost 3 years of constant antibiotics and pain it looks like an end may be in sight. I have had a nuclear xray, where they insert a dye into my stoma and watch what is going on, where the urine is and the condition of stoma, and hey presto everything seems to be going good. So the possible outcome is that I have a small pocket just under my skin where the stoma comes out and urine is collecting there and getting infected. I am now on a waiting list for surgery to remove said pocket and hopefully sort out all thses damn infections.


Watch this space for updates!!

Hi Gordon, Was just thinking about our chat and thought I'd check in to see what's up? Did you have the surgery and are things ok? Hope all is well. Hugs Z
