Hi. I'm 8 yrs post-op and am having a few issues that I think are caused by my daily meds.

I'm not sure why or how exactly but during my colonoscopy my doctor found a problem with my stoma. It appears that it's been "burnt", there is discoloration and it's enlarged. As far as I know, none of my meds are in an extended release form.

Has anyone else encountered this? I haven't been able to find information and if you have, the more information I can put together before I talk to my doctor would be extremely helpful.

Thank you!
