Hi all- I still love my K-pouch! However, this past week I have had increased mucosal output that is saturating my AMP pads, mini-pads, anything I wear. I also have been leaking stool the past few days (especially at night) and as expected, the skin around my stoma is very irritated. Have any of you all had this issue? I should probably be looking at my diet, but at first thought, I have not eaten anything different to increase mucous production. I intubate more at night also – maybe thinking my pouch is too full? Do any of you have insight or have you had this issue?
