Can You Experience Constipation with an Ileostomy?

This topic is about someone who has an ileostomy due to severe motility issues and has recently been diagnosed with gastroparesis. They are experiencing unusual periods of no output from their ileostomy, lasting 8–12 hours, and are worried about whether this is a serious issue. They are looking for advice and information from others who might have experienced something similar.

Here are some suggestions and insights shared by others:

1. Consider trying some simple dietary stimulants that might help prompt ileostomy output:
- Drink grape juice.
- Sip on hot tea.
- Try Coca-Cola or another carbonated soda.

2. Pay attention to any pain you might be experiencing. If there is pain, it could be a sign that you need to seek medical attention promptly.
