After having a 'no visible cancer' chat with oncologist, I was so happy, went for my next appointment with the surgeon, no worries at all there! He asked if I was getting any discharge or pain and I happily replied ' no'! Now, 2days later, I'm getting a thin, brown discharge and a bit of discomfort Is this me going nuts or is it normal?

Hi Artsie,
things have settled down at last, apparently it's normal to get this discharge, whatever normal is these days! I'm resigned I think to being either loose or constipated too, the stoma nurse says it's all down to diet, which I believe is true but finding the right food to suit me is a flaming problem!
