Use closed bags and throw the.bag in the garbage. You do not have to use 😅the cleaning bags. Keep the surrounding area super clean. Keep to soft foods at first. Walk and keep moving. I am four years out. Do eat simply but that will change. I hope you had home care for awhile. It takes some time to heal. You may need more vitamins, potassium and magnesium. I still have times of days off. Lots of water

I didn’t struggle with the bag and ileostomy but I really, really struggled with the high output of the stoma 10, 15 or 20 times a day to empty out, clean up, wash up…I was offered the reversal, the surgeon said I had quite a lot of large bowel and small bowel and the outcome was positive based on that, re adjusting to having everything back in circuit was as warned and still better than that constant bag checking and worrying about the toilet being nearby. I do think if the empties of the bag were 1 or two a day, that would have made me think about the surgery because surgery is still a challenge.

I made a similar cheesecake two years ago. One tip for ease of slicing the cake: I diced my apples instead of slicing them. That made it so easy to cut pieces of cake.

I've never needed a larger bag because I eat small meals as recommended. Also I'm only 5 feet tall. We're supposed to change or empty the bag when it is 1/3 full anyway. A larger bag would be very difficult for me to wear. Gatorade and the like is for the sugar, salt and potassium that you need to stay hydrated. Drinking water or coconut water alone will not hydrate you; they are not able to charge your body's electrical needs.

I decided not to have the reversal; I'm happy and healthy with the colostomy; it is my friend. I'm 5 1/2 year cancer free now. All the best to you, and everyone going for the reversal.
@LadyGTarot4 ай бұрын
I am leaning towards not having a reversal. I have an ostomy due to Rectal Diverticulitis which is a very very rare happening. Try looking it up online there is just nothing out online about it. My surgeon said it would be another major surgery to reverse. Being I am 74 years of age and 2 months out from the surgery and still dealing with an infected incision so it just doesn't seem viable to go for the reversal. The last thing I wanted was an ostomy but knowing the surgery that was done and what the complications can be with a reversal I am deciding maybe the ostomy isn't so bad after all.

You should have had a larger bag-something bigger than an ostomy bag. My surgeon’s nurse said I just needed to empty my bag more often and that didn’t make sense to me. I called the wound nurse and she said that’s not how we do it. So she gave me a larger bag which worked. Hope the next days go smoothly for you.

I had my reversal last week. I didn’t have an epidural. I had a bowel movement 36 hours after surgery. I was on dilaudid for three days. My biggest complaint is my anus is on fire. I am drinking lots of water, and getting lots of rest. So far so good!
