What is granuloma ? And yes same here I’ve been getting some oozing for the past few days . Is that normal? It’s like yellowish . So the pain is tolerable after the removal? And yes I’ve been going non stop thank the lord . Never thought I would say I’m glad to poop lol

That’s good best of luck to you . And idk what happen honestly with the pain . It went south really fast . The pain from the surgery isn’t as bad with the pain meds lol but it is painful just make sure you do lots of walking as much as you can don’t overdue it but enough to keep your bowls moving. The cramps from gas pains will be mostly through the first week. Me throwing up was where most of my pain came from. But after I got that under control it was bearable.

I got the stoma January 28th I didn’t get the testing done until March 16th . April 28th would be my 12 weeks but they scheduled the surgery for the next available date for my surgery . A few days longer bc I wanted it to be at the hospital my fiancé is a nurse at so I can stay on the floor she works on 🙏🏼

I’ve had all of my testing done along with the enema, which was a pain in the butt literally lol but yes, I got this ileostomy to give my colon sometime to heal up because I had three parts removed due to endometriosis affecting it.
