Update on Mum after Ileostomy ? Abraxane chemotherapy
Mum has made remarkable progress since her emergency
ileostomy
in March. She has today had the results of a scan performed last week. She has been advised that there is a raise in her CA125 from 155 to 281, but the scan shows minimal disease.

Does anyone out there has an ileostomy because of their ovarian cancer?
I have joined the
Ileostomy
Association but although I have had lots of very good advice and help, no-one seems to have their stoma because of ovarian cancer.

I have been fitted with an
ileostomy
bag because of a blockage in the bowel area. I will now have further milder sessions of chemo to hold things at bay and been told the average length of time for survival is around 3.5 years.

Help Needed on Ileostomy, for Mum 71
Mum had an
ileostomy
2 weeks ago, has now been discharged from hospital but is having trouble getting things to thicken up if you know what I mean. She had a good day yesterday and only had to empty the bag 3 times, but so far since last night it has gone back to being all fluid.

Does anyone else who has an ileostomy have to take Magnaspartate sachets for low magensium?
Because of the
ileostomy
which I've had for 18 months I suffer from low magnesium. I take 1-2 magnaspartate sachets per day but because they cause diahorrea I feel they do me more harm than good because soon after I take them I then have a couple of bags full of pure liquid poo (sorry if tmi!).
