When I am completely exhausted and I need to get to bed and sleep - which for me is every evening - I get into bed, and then my stomach starts cramping. Before the ileostomy, I'd have to drag myself out of bed, into the cold, and spend a couple of hours in the bathroom, in pain. Now I have the ileostomy I get into bed, and my stomach starts cramping, and I love it because I know I don't even have to get out of bed . I just lie there in the warm, dozing, and the most I'll have to do is get up once to go empty the bag, which takes five minutes.
I can't tell you how much I enjoy lying in my nice warm bed thinking these kind of thoughts!
