Wish my stomach wasn't so big! One consultant says I have a pastoral hernia.
Another one says I haven't! Don't know where I stand! My tummy opposite my stoma
looks bigger than the stoma half. I leak every day but not from the stoma. It's either the
(wee pipe) that's been left in after surgery or it's coming from my vagina, but I can't tell which it is! Anyone else have this problem? Going to see the consultant again next Friday, hoping to sort it once and for all!
