Colostomy Irrigation Experiences Since 2004 - Let's Chat!

I have a colostomy  that I have had since 2001. In 2004 I started doing a process called irrigation and would love to chat with anyone who also does irrigation 

There are plenty of irrigators on this site.

What are your questions/concerns/issues??

I can't use irrigation but what I know I learned from Bill, perhaps he will weigh in.

Hello tkent 1948.
Having been anally irrigating for years, one of my main questions to the (stoma) surgeon was whether I would be able to irrigate my stoma. Once he stated that this would be possible I felt confident about having the operation and have been irrigating since about 6 weeks after the op.
What I usually advise newbies to this technique is to have a look at some of the videos on Youtube as they are much easier to understand than the written word. That said, if there is anything specific you would like to chat about, I will be glad to try to help.
Best wishes

Bill
