upset Stomas

Just been in now. His stomach was flat yesterday, up like a balloon and hard today. And that's with no food around. I think its as if the bowel keeps going into spasms.

It could well be that. Hopefully they’ll be able to advice on what’s going on. 

Well, he is still in hospital with an NG tube in. Loads of stuff has come out through that, then last night the stoma burst into action and 7 bags came off!! The consultant seemed very excited, but we don't know what it all means! We'll wait and see!!  He is allowed cups of tea tomorrow, so doubt he will be out for Christmas! I don't care as long as they sort him out!!

If the consultant was excited it must be good news. They don’t get excited about much. Fingers crossed he’ll be well enough to come home for Christmas. Hospitals like to get patients home. I’ll be thinking of you. 

That's good news as the blockage has moved fingers crossed you get him home for Xmas 

I'm doubting it very much. He is only on cups of tea tomorrow and I think they will want to see food going in and the stoma working after all the trouble he had initially. I'm happy with that.

I agree he will need to be fit for home. You can cook a roast any time can’t you. I’d be the same. It’s best to have him back with his stoma working probably.
