When you’ve had stoma surgery, your body can feel like it’s a bit of a scientific experiment. Even years on, you learn new things and notice things that you maybe never gave a second thought before, like how long it takes for something to come out your ileostomy, or your output might have changed colour due to what you’ve eaten.
Wherever you intend to spend your day, ensure you are satisfied with facilities available to sort any bag changes or toilet trips where you need more space. Taking a radar key and a card to show you need to use toilet facilities urgently is also helpful.
Christmas is that time of year where the food and drinks are flowing and we are consuming different foods, richer foods and possibly a bit more alcohol for some, than we would any other time in the year. Not only that, we are thinking about what to wear, and possibly visiting relatives and friends so having a stoma through this period may leave you with some questions.
Living with a stoma can be a challenging adjustment, but finding the right products to manage your stoma doesn’t have to be another burden. Your comfort, confidence, and health are paramount, which is why investing time in discovering the best stoma care products for your individual needs is essential.
