Hi Cranagh and welcome to the community. I see you have also posted in the Ask a Nurse section where you will get expert advice when the nurses pick up your post. Could I suggest you also post your concerns in the Bowel (Colon and Rectum) group . There you will find others with experience of this and will be able to advise. Click the highlighted link to get to the group. Any problems finding your way around the site, click the reply button below to ask. I hope all goes well. Best wishes.
