Pain and cramps

Hi all. I am approx 9 weeks post ileostomy. I would suppose these pains and cramps would have eased off a bit. I am still struggling. It's so unbearable. I try as much as to eat and keep hydrated but with occasionally nausea eating is quiet a challenge. My nights are somewhat crazy with these symptoms. Does it ever get better?

Hi, I had mine done in 1997, I had such pain before the surgery but after all the gas and stool backup went away. Good luck on your surgery.
