Hesitating to post this as I think it’s something maybe doesn’t get discussed often, and it’s pretty yucky - only I can’t find anything online.
My husband has terminal bowel cancer. With mets to lungs and lymph.
He has an ileostomy.
Today there have been three episodes of almost black, foul-smelling stuff from his rectum. Quite a lot of it. He isn’t in any pain from this. But is generally weak. The nurse I spoke to didn’t seem surprised or unduly worried.
Does anyone know anything/ can shed any light on what and why??
I've just seen that I can post an image - but probably better not to (although I do have photos!)
