Can you Run with an Ostomy?

When you find out that an ostomy is going to be in your future and surgery is scheduled or it just happened lots of questions come to mind. We all feel the same fear and worry and strait up shame.  That may be something that is more prone to my generation, but shame is the first thing we feel and then fear comes from it.  But one thing to know is that it's ok to feel that way, but that it also lessons as your experience with your ostomy grows. Most people are able to do the exact same things they did before they had an ostomy and without much difficulty.  The great ostomy supplies that are being produced allow people to get as active as they want for the most part and running is still possible!

 

There are some people with an ostomy that have even done an Iron Man competition! That is a wild accomplishment for any human being on earth and yet to do it with an ostomy is incredible. So that is a quick answer and yes you can run with an ostomy.  Now if for some reason your doctor tells you specifically not to do it then I wouldn't do it.  Not everyone is the same and we all have different reasons and capabilities.  But in general most things can be done with the right ostomy supplies and the gear that exists is really cool.

 

I was told to use some bags that had tabs on them to get an elastic belt through it.  I thought that would be uncomfortable and would be a big issue with me personally, but I ended up trying it. I tried it and picked up a belt from my local pharmacy and it worked really well.  I ended up being able to run without all the movement that would have happened before and also having a good pair of running shorts also helped out a bunch.

 

Now if you just had surgery I am sure you were told to take it easy, but even if its a year later and you want to get back into running there are a few things to keep in mind.  You are more prone to a hernia now.  So don't jump back in full force.  I like to tell people to start way slower than they would think they need to just to be safe.  There are also some good apps that help start slow when getting back into jogging. Just ask your healthcare provider first and get back into being the you, you want to be!

  1. It was during my research on HIV/Herpes that I stumbled upon the Hiv/Herpes information; information which is quite easy to find when doing a search for STD on google. I was into conspiracy at the time and thought of HIV/Herpes Cured' being a conspiracy was something ignorant though,I found it pretty interesting about herbal medicine. I asked questions about the Herbal cure's on official HIV/Herpes websites and I was banned for doing so by moderators who told me that I was parroting Hiv/Herpes propaganda. This reinforced my belief that there is a cure for Hiv/Herpes Then i found a lady from germany name Achima Abelard Dr Itua Cure her Hiv so I send him a mail about my situation then talk more about it and send me his herbal medicine I drank for two weeks.And today I'm Cured no Hiv/Herpes in my life,I searched for Hiv/Herpes groups to attempt to make contact with people in order to learn more about Hiv/Herpes Herbal Cure I believed at this time that you with the same disease this information is helpful to you and I wanted to do the best I could to spread this information in the hopes of helping other people.That Dr Itua Herbal Medicine makes me believes there is a hope for people suffering from,Parkinson's,Alzheimer’s disease,Bechet’s disease,Crohn’s disease,Cushing’s disease,Heart failure,Multiple Sclerosis,Hypertension,Colo_Rectal Cancer,Lyme Disease,Blood Cancer,Brain Cancer,Breast Cancer,Lung Cancer,Kidney Cancer,Love Spell,psoriasis,Lottery Spell,disease,Schizophrenia,Cancer,Scoliosis,Fibromyalgia,Fluoroquinolone Toxicity Syndrome Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva.Infertility,Tach Disease ,Epilepsy ,Diabetes ,Coeliac disease,,Arthritis,Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis,Autism,Alzheimer's disease,Adrenocortical carcinoma.Asthma, (measles, tetanus, whooping cough, tuberculosis, polio and diphtheria)Allergic diseases.Parkinson's disease,Schizophrenia,Lung Cancer,Breast Cancer,Colo-Rectal Cancer,Blood Cancer,Prostate Cancer,siva.Fatal Familial Insomnia Factor V Leiden Mutation ,Epilepsy Dupuytren's disease,Desmoplastic small-round-cell tumor Diabetes ,Coeliac disease,Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease,Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy, Ataxia,Arthritis,Amyotrophic Lateral Scoliosis,Fibromyalgia,Fluoroquinolone ToxicitySyndrome Fibrodysplasia Ossificans ProgresS sclerosis,Seizures,Alzheimer's disease,Adrenocortical carcinoma.Asthma,Allergic diseases.Hiv_ Aids,Herpe ,Copd,Glaucoma., Cataracts,Macular degeneration,Cardiovascular disease,Lung disease.Enlarged prostate,Osteoporosis.
