Non-Ostomy... healing journey?

StarrT

Hey there, new here trying to learn the Forum thang…and still navigating the Survivor thing- 3yrs clear of Cancer/ treatment.

If you've not had an Ostomy, does anyone else deal with mucus/ moisture leaking throut the day, leaving you feeling damp? My sphincters are both (internal 0/ external 1/3) mostly gone & scar tissue has little sensation. So anything exiting has to get away from opening b4 I can feel it.

My "OncologyTeam" has had no advice or suggestions, other than a Full Ostomy which seems very drastic since there's no cancer to clear.

So, I wear thin overnight liners during the day to keep moisture from soaking my clothes/ showing. Thankfully it has no odor. However, it still is frequent & pervasive, the leaking mucus. Have you dealt with this? Seen or heard anyone else mention it?

Hoping for help/ ideas… Thanks!
