I post pictures here only so those who think they may have one, have some sort of idea of what one might look like. In any case, my stoma has now become infected, once again. It happens so frequently that I don’t even need to go in for an appointment anymore. I just call my doctor or surgeon and they call in a prescription. It doesn’t bother me so much anymore other than the fact I’m rather drained of energy. I’m OK in the morning and early afternoon but come 4 or 5pm, I sort of hit a wall and start feeling ill and tired (and grumpy). So I try to get everything done before the early afternoon and it all seems to work out OK. The button is still wonderful and all the work that my doctors and I put in to get one for me, is still completely worth it. I LOVE it and recommend anyone with a tube to get one, if possible.
