This topic revolves around the delicate balance of sharing personal experiences online, dealing with job security concerns, and managing ongoing health issues after ostomy surgery. The person sharing their story is navigating the complexities of privacy in blogging, fears about job loss, and the challenges of post-surgery complications.

Here are some pieces of advice and insights shared by others:

1. Consider turning vivid dreams and life experiences into fiction. This can be a creative outlet that allows you to express yourself without revealing too much personal information.

2. Remember that you can transform real-life material enough to protect the privacy of yourself and those around you, avoiding any potential upset.

3. Emotional support is important. Acknowledge your own generosity and kindness towards others, even while facing your own health challenges. Many are wishing you a speedy recovery.

4. Shared experiences can be comforting. Another person with long-term ostomy experience mentioned similar issues with sitting pain, phantom-rectum sensations, and scar-tissue discomfort, even a decade after surgery. This confirms that such sensations are common and validates your own experiences.
