Hi again, I don't know why I didn't think of it yesterday. Suddenly it occurred to me that it could just be gas. I get it all the time, self-inflicted, as I eat a lot of foods that cause gas. I have come to recognize it, and it is a feeling of pain and pressure, but I also know that it will pass, and it does. It can be quite painful. This might well be what it is, especially if you are still having normal output, and it's not happening all the time. Do you eat lots of foods that could be the cause? Sometimes, if it's quite bad, I'll lie down and massage my abdomen around the stoma, which seems to help get it out. The only way to avoid it is to stop eating those foods, so you have to decide which is worse. I personally love my gas causing foods too much to give them up totally, but I do try to limit the amount I eat at one time. Things like broccoli, onions, garlic, cabbages, beans, etc.
