Well, finally saw my new specialist and he's fantastic. It's been decided that my stoma is too malformed to fix with any appliances on the market currently....I've tried absolutely everything. He said the stoma will need revision and maybe resite too. What is the difference, any recommendations? If so, did they have to access the midline incision? What was recovery like? Scared to think it will be like "bowel resection surgery".......Praying it's less painful and less involved, I've got enough scar tissue already! Thanks all.
