Hello, I am about to have removal of ascending colon due to cancer. But because I have Ehlers Danlos Syndrome, I am now going to have an ileostomy (not because of the cancer).
I am devastated but one main concern is that I am a Coeliac.
Is there any advice or anything that is different because I am a Coeliac and how would this affect the foods that I will have to eat?
Hi and a very warm welcome to the online community
I'm afraid I don't know the answer to your question but I noticed that your post hadn't had any replies yet. Replying to you will 'bump' it back to the top of the discussion list where hopefully it'll be seen by someone who can advise you on what foods you can eat.
I hope you don't mind me suggesting that you also join and post in the bowel (colon and rectal) cancer group as I'm sure you'll find others there who can tell you their dietary experiences. If this is something that you'd like to do clicking on the link I've created will take you straight there where you can join and post in the same was as you did here.
While you're waiting for replies it would be great if you could pop something about your journey so far into your profile as it really helps others when answering or looking for someone with a similar diagnosis. It also means that you don't have to keep repeating yourself. To do this click on your username and then select 'Profile'. You can amend it at any time and if you're not sure what to write you can take a look at mine by clicking on my username.
