Feeling worn down
I’m really lucky as I had my ileostomy reversed almost 6 weeks ago and my bowel function isn’t bad at all. However my wound at the stoma site isn’t healing. It was left as a cavity wound and has been packed daily since surgery. It’s not as wide or long but the depth hasn’t healed up. My diet is good, lots of protein and prescription supplemental drinks. I am taking light exercise but nothing is happening. Am feeling wornout from it. Just wanted to moan
