WHAT DOES A STOMA/BELLY LOOK LIKE POST OSTOMY SURGERY? | OSTOMY CARE TIPS | STOMA BAG CHANGE

[@ESJ-jk4uk]

I just wanted to say thank you for your courage in making these videos. I think I must have watched every video on you tube about ileostomies but never found anyone in my situation. I’ve had motility issues since pelvic trauma caused by a traumatic birth 15 years ago. They are considering an ileostomy at the minute and honestly I’m so fed up I’d snap their hand off for it. It’s been so nice to see someone in my situation and how positive you have been about it. I hope things are still going well for you.

I’m three weeks post surgery and I fainted the first time I attempted to change the bag myself too! I thought it was just me! My husband is helping me change it now, but I still have to lay down while we do it. I am afraid I’ll never get used to this, but I want to be self sufficient. I hope I get better about it. Thanks for sharing this, it makes me feel a little better. 💙 Karen

Another great educational video! You still look full of energy. My doctor is going to have a home nurse come to my house and do a colon flush. From the colon to my bottom side, I never heard of this before being done. But he wants to clear out all the mucus,and start making my rectum muscle start to work again. For all you been through you still you look full of energy.

[@gutmylifeback7926]

Thank-you I didn't quite feel it!

[@JacindaH]

You are so awesome and I can't tell you how much I appreciate all that you share. I had a blockage which I didn't realize until I watched your video. The pain was unbearable..but I tried everything you suggested and you saved me. I just needed to buy a few days until I see my surgeon and you've done that. Thank you so much and I pray you are feeling better ( my intestine ruptured in September so this is all new to me. I didn't even know I had issues prior to almost dying)

I have an ostomy for almost 5yrs. My bladder ruptured in 2014 and in 2016 I lost my bladder. I also needed a neprostomy tube in my left kidney right after surgery. All the best to you!! 🙏🙏

Take your time and be gentle with yourself... you will get there

[@ashleythibeau7844]

I have a permanent ileostomy for a year and a month. I don’t feel comfortable getting a bathing suit and I can hid it in my pants because it either rips of or the stool get pancake ( which is a pain when I need to empty. I still feel self conscious about it showing with some of my shirts even though I don’t care. Thanks for this video. Also thanks to my doctor I still have a butt crack.

[@gutmylifeback7926]

It takes time to feel comfortable again ... go easy with yourself you have been through so much! Thank you for the comment and support 😊❤️

[@lynagawa6080]

You're brave and positive. God bless you.

[@donna8374]

I'm four weeks post surgery.. It's all been one huge shock, I couldn't even look at my wound at first but then realised nobody should be expected to change it but me... I'm a little sore underneath but with a bit of stoma talc it seems to be easing... I do feel very weak and my mood is very low.. Hopefully that will ease soon to..

[@gutmylifeback7926]

You are still really early on in your recovery so just take things day by day and don’t have any expectations for yourself... this is the mistake I made, expecting things too soon and then beating myself up for not being able to do it. Recovery and healing is up to 12 weeks so allow yourself that time 😊❤️ sending you lots of healing xx

I’ve never seen a loop ileostomy. I have an end ileostomy that is permanent and I had barbie butt surgery. I couldn’t even look at my stoma after my surgery cause I was nervous. I got my surgery cause I kept having pain and bowel obstructions every couple months. The obstructions were horrible.

[@gutmylifeback7926]

It can be a weird thing to start looking at- even I struggled to start with! I hope the obstructions have now resolved!

[@kellyolson7083]

@@gutmylifeback7926 knock on wood the surgery took care of the strictures and adhesions and I haven’t had an obstruction in almost 2 years since I had my surgery. It was a rough recovery though.

[@gutmylifeback7926]

@@kellyolson7083 that is really positive to hear! I’m hoping that I too will not have anymore blockages 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼

[@jillwilson8212]

I am 6 days post op colostomy and it’s really great to hear that my stoma will potentially shrink by 2/3. Everything is super swollen… I get that. Just takes time. Thank you for sharing.

[@SusanneKARGER]

Thank you so much for sharing! That is so helpful. I am about to get my stoma done in March and I really wonder, if I can lay on my stomach with the stoma? How do you manage that? Thanks ❤️ all the best for you 🤗

[@geeg7202]

I know this is an old video, but could you tell me the bad type you were using the maker and the model or closer to I could find it

[@christiansj57]

i'm using collstomy bag for 12 year..... now my belly shape is worst, my belly shape is unbalance between right and left , i'm eo shy about my condition

[@cookiesroblox6759]

I thought the bags with the dome around the stoma.. appose to the flat ones.. I thought we're for stomas that we're flat or sunken into the stomach.. x

[@wondertwin13]

Thank you so much for sharing and I hope you are feeling much better now🙏🏻I have had a stoma since 2011 and I have developed a stricture and over the last year I have been putting off my surgery due to Covid. Well I havent had any output in 72 hrs and I will be on my way to the er in the morning if nothing has passed. I hope they will be able to get things moving but I’m pretty sure it will be an open revision (not laparoscopic) and I’m scared to death. I have tried everything at home and all I can think of that blocked me is gluten free tortilla chips and cherries. Lol I woulda thought the opposite with cherries but duh the skin 😂🤣🤣 I shoulda known better.

[@gutmylifeback7926]

Anything gluten free used to block me up too!!! Nightmare! Hope you are feeling better xxx

[@jillwilson8212]

Gluten-free can cause blockages? Interesting. I wonder why. 🤔

[@RogueJester1313]

Lots of hugs hun ..... bless you.
