Had my stoma for a over a year due to bowel cancer but for months I've had sore stomach and nausea at night and most of morning fed up with it .
Hi Les61
I’m sorry you haven’t received any replies yet-my reply here will nudge your post back to the top of discussions where hopefully it will be seen by someone who can help if they’ve experienced anything similar.
I have a permanent colostomy so can’t advise on post reversal issues, but it seems like a long time for you to be suffering like this. Have you spoken to your team about these long term issues and had any advice from them? If not, I’d suggest that you do this to see if you need to be seen and have this checked out. There may be something you can be given to help alleviate the discomfort and the nausea.
