I had surgery on the 23rd of June. it went badlt afoter popping another parastmal hernia the day after having the others repaired. Since the surgery I have had sharp stinign pain around the base of my stoma, a weeping sinus open up and i have an extremely sore lump on my abdomen that feels like it may turn into another weeping sinus. Right then, My surgeon is away till the 27th of August and I really need to get it checked urgently. Do IA, see my GP who really doesn't have much of a clue about stomas.; B, go to the emergency and have them assess it even though i hate taking up their time. or C, wait till my surgeon returns. I have got a f***ing clue what to do at the moment.
