I haven't posted on here for a while but I thought some one might find this interesting. I have had a few blockages in the year and four months since my op for laparoscopic low colorectal resection, but the last one really was the worst but in a way enlightening. I had the normal feeling of a block at midday which just got worse as the evening approached severe abdominal pain bloating no output not even a trickle of fluid . I was starting to panic as I had the dreaded sick feeling starting to happen , I did the w warm shower which didn't work then I started to sweat and went white as a ghost I new there was no time to go to a and e so I got ready for the inevitable. My dear wife stayed with me as I finally was sick and some of my contents came up but luckily my stoma at the same time decided to eject its contents all over the floor in two or three powerful parastalsis movements I had forgot to put my bag back on, but it was such a relief as soon as it was over about one minute I felt fantastic it is such a feeling to finally get it to release all that pressure. Having blockage is very is awkward you have to decide to either go to a and e or stay at home , in hind sight I think in a normal world without covid you should go before you are sick, but luckily this one ended up alright.
