About
New Ileostomy after colon resection because of metastatic colon cancer. I first had temporary colostomy due to colon tumor blockage but now have diverting Ileostomy after colostomy resection. Ileostomy output and diet is much different, and more challenging, to handle than the colostomy. I will return to chemotherapy and am not sure at this point if Ileostomy will ever be reversed; it all depends on cancer status.
