New tumour, another op? Very scared!
My new tumour is on the site of a post operative abscess afte my debulking op in 2010. I am seeing the gynae surgeon a week on Thurs to discuss another op as the tumour is constricting my bowel. I am so nervous as there is a real risk of bowel damage and a colostomy. Bang goes my aquarobics, the one

Has anyone had a Colostomy bag after tumor resection?
I have a re grown ovarian imature teratoma that I am waiting to have removed. Chemo caused it to be necrotic so it was drained and is now only 6 cm rather than the 10cm. It's position is low over my vagina where my uteturus used to be. It also choked off my right ureter so that my kidney will be removed

How long til a stoma settles into a pattern?
I had my colostomy, descending almost end of colon, on December 4th. It does not seem to have settled into a regular pattern of working. I still get the urge to go to the loo but seem to have no control over the stoma excreting and I wondered whether anyone else has the experience and can say when, or

Next Op to remove tumour - colostomy here I come!
As expected I am to have another operation in Early December to remove the latest tumour. This is, my surgeon tells me unusual in ovarian cancer as it is often diffuse. This tumour however is very distinct and given that I am very well in myself surgery is the best option before it causes a blockage
