Hi! I haven`t posted in a while. In Sept./16 I had a subtotal colectomy toxic megacolon (colon sepsis); end result an End Ileostomy. (had cardiac arest during the procedure) Been basically getting along okay.Â
These past few days, every so often get a sharp pain inside ( feels like it`s inside stoma and surrounding area). Only way to describe it, feels like pinching skin with fingernails or a sharp knife. There`s been lots of output; so I don`t think it`s a blockage. Is it possible a particle gets blocked, while other stuff gets through? It`s not continuous; starts every so often, then seems to stop on it`s own. tried heating pads and massaging area; this didn`t make it better or worse.Â
Wondering if anyone else has experienced similar symptons? My wife is a retired RN; she can`t see anything noticable from the outside of stoma.Â
side note; I have prostrate cancer; don`t know if anything here would be affecting this.Â
Thanks
Lloyd
