Today was my first day back to chemo since July 10th. Alot of things have happened since then. I went in for surgery, I had a total hysterectomy, a part of my bladder removed, and I have an ilestomy bag. When my doctor performed the surgery, he was surprised that a part of the tumor on my ovary had attached itself to a part of my bladder. The hysterectomy, he got every cancerous part out. The ilestomy bag, I didn’t want & my doctor also didn’t want me to have, however it’s temporary & reversible. After 9 weeks of chemo, the ilestomy will be reversed.
Everything was going fine until I got home a few days after leaving the hospital. Ilestomy problems & got depressed. I was afraid to go out for the bag leaking. My stoma doesn’t stick out, it caves in. My skin around the stoma got so angry from being changed several times a day, it grew to be a huge pain in the ass. I was in the hospital twice after surgery with ilestomy issues. The bag continued to leak until the right bag was found. Once the right bag was found, I was happy.
On a great note, my numbers are at a normal level now (as you see in pic) I am overly happy with this!
