Tips for Ostomates when Leaving the House
Try to practice the following tips:
1. Carry a small bag where you have ostomy supplies whenever you leave the house. In case of emergency, you have something to change with. Bring along wipes, alcohol and even an extra shirt.
2. When traveling by car, do not put ostomy supplies in the trunk where it is hot and the wafer can melt and be deformed.
3. Be cautious about food and water when you are in other countries.
4. In a place where weather is hot, be prepared to change more often.

Mga Paalala:
1. Huwag kalimutan na uminom ng maraming tubig lalo na sa mga salu salo kapag may mga party.
2. Kung maiiwasan ang softdrinks ay mas mainam.
3. Hindi sagabal na may Colostomy Bag para magdiwang ngayong Pasko 2012 at salubungin ang 2013.
4. Magbigay ng oras para mag-dasal para sa magandang kalusugan.
Maligayang Pasko sa Lahat.

COLOSTOMY BOWEL CONTROL
COLOSTOMY BOWEL CONTROL
Patients with a right-sided or upper colostomy do not have as much remaining colon as those with a left-sided or lower colostomy. Because of this, there is usually too little colon left in a lower colostomy to absorb enough water to make a solid stool. A lower colostomy cannot be controlled by irrigation, but instead behaves very much like an ileostomy, with fairly continuous discharge.
The left-sided colostomy is often described as a ‘dry’ colostomy since it usually discharges formed stool. One has the choice of attempting to manage this type of colostomy by either trained control or irrigation control. Only 1/3 of the people who at-tempt to train themselves to control the lower colostomy without irrigation are successful in doing so. This control is more easily and satisfactorily achieved by irrigation. However, there are some patients who can’t achieve irrigation control because they have an ‘irritable bowel’. This problem has nothing to do with the colostomy. It is just part of some people’s makeup. Some people, even before they have their colostomy, may have had very irregular bowel habits. They retain these habits after the colostomy is performed.
Regular irrigation does not assure regularity with irritable bowel syndrome. When this condition exists, the physician will some-times suggest that the patient dispense with irrigation, since it does not produce the desired regular pattern. People may become frustrated by trying to achieve this. People with an irritable bowel situation should treat the colostomy much like an ileostomy by wearing an ostomy appliance all of the time.
