Smells in the Morning
December 26, 2008Hey everybody, I’m back after a very good Christmas this year. I hope all was well with you. I know what it’s like to miss a major holiday because of colitis (Thanksgiving in my case) so hopefully those of you who missed Christmas didn’t get too down.
Stool Count Three Days Ago: 7 times during the day, 2 times during the night.
Stool Count Two Days Ago: 5 times during the day, 2 times during the night.
Yesterday’s Stool Count: 4 times during the day, 1 time during the night.
Looking at this record, it appears that my j-pouch is doing very well! And only two weeks out from surgery. However, one thing to keep in mind is that the last two days have been holidays, which means my eating schedule was thrown off. We’ll see how much frequency I have the next few days as I get back to my normal eating schedule.
And another new video today! Another ostomy video, this time about a curious situation that I found myself in some days upon waking up in the morning.
Keep fighting,
~Dennis
Question: Do you ever wake up with problems with your ostomy bag?
