Hi, I had my colostomy in June. All was going well until last week. I always make sure I am hydrated as I also have a SPC. I take Laxido/Movicol sachets daily to make sure my stools are soft. For some reason, I started with diarrhea. I had this for 2 days. Since then, I've not had anything from the stoma. Three days I have had no output at all from the stoma. I mentioned this to my nurse on Friday and she wasn't worried as I still making wind noises. Is this a common problem? Thank you.
