After having my ileostomy for three months, after lunch today I had a sensation I've never felt before. There was a pulsing/spasm in my abdomen, near the stoma, as I digested. It's not painful, and I don't have any symptoms that make me think something is wrong (aside from diarrhea, which has been a near constant since my surgery). Has anyone else had this sensation? If so, do you know what caused it?
