Hello everybody,

I’ve had total colostomy six months ago and I’ve been having numerous problems that brought me back in hospital for the most part of these six months. I’m now finally home but I’ve been facing huge problems each time I’m passing the content to my stoma - it starts with the feeling of cold sweat, I get dizzy and almost faint. It even happened once that I blacked out and woke up feeling I’m passing the content.

I have a checkup with my doctor at the end of the May, and all they told me when I called his office is to make sure I’m hydrated enough - but I’m not so sure that all this is caused only by dehydration.
