Now I'm having pain over stoma that goes into my back pain all the time. In November 2009 had to be admitted in hospital for a bowel obstruction, doctors could not do surgery they said it would be to risky, so I was in the hospital for a week and then discharged. Now the pain has started back up. Do you have any suggestions?

Hi christiangurl-
My thought is that you need to see a health care provider as soon as possible. There are several possible issues here, and all of them need treatment. The biggest one is if you have another obstruction and do not seek treatment, you could end up with a perforated bowel which could then infect your entire abdominal cavity.
I'm sorry you have been through so much. All of those surgeries are hard to deal with. But please don't wait. You need to be evaluated. If I were in your shoes, I'd be in the emergency room.
Good luck to you.
