: My husband just came home yesterday from having his j-pouch taken down and a permanent ileostomy. On the ride
home we stopped to eat at an Arbys. Without realizing it, he ate most of a bun that had sesame seeds on the top. Today he is
complaining of some abdomen pain. We are concerned it might be a blockage from the seeds on the bun. Besides drinking lots of
fluid, what should we be doing? Not sure if it's just pain from the surgery--they had to open to complete it. Don't want to go to
emergency room if it isn't necessary. Any suggestions?
