Unexpected Vomiting and Weight Loss Post-Colostomy

Got my colostomy on left side after pelvic floor prolapse and failed repairs causing inability to stool. Also have issues with colonic motility, celiac artery compression, UC, SIBO, and extensively stretchy connective tissue. The colostomy has been a blessing and a nightmare. Maybe the stoma is too close to my stomach but it makes me throw up when it empties and without warning. It has been extremely painful but is improving. I've lost 30+ lbs since surgery 4/26/18 and have been vomiting and having straight liquid output for three weeks making eating, hydration, and any normalcy of life impossible but my surgeon just acts like it's normal.

Good morning. If your surgeon says this is "normal", if I was you, I would get a second opinion. I had to do that, myself, due to my doctor stating my symptoms were "in my head". If I would have listened to my previous doctor, I would be underground right now. I am not giving you my 2 cents worth. This is my 6 dollars and 78 cents worth to you.

It certainly is NOT normal.  I would definitely get another opinion.  You should not have to go through such things.   Don't stop looking until you find someone to help you.  I wish you the best of luck.
