Hi I’m new to the forum. I had an APR operation in October & have a permanent stoma. Thankfully no problems to report. Has anyone had an abdominal ultrasound with a stoma? I’m due one on Wednesday & was just wondering how that works. I’d be grateful to hear anyone’s experience.

  • I had one last week.no problem at all.took extra bags etc as wasnt sure if I would need to remove my bag but left it on and they worked around it.

    Nothing found in my liver(which was why I was sent)

    All the best

  • Hi Kath,

    Thank you so much for your helpful reply.

    I feel very reassured.

    This is for my first 3 month check, so the liver will be looked at amongst other things I guess. I have mine on Wednesday.

    I’m so glad your result was a good one.

    Thanks again. 

  • Thats ok.all the best on wednesday.they looked at everything in the abdomen.painless and easy
