Hi @jimmy2248. You may have noticed that I move your post on having urinary tract infections with an urostomy to this existing thread on ostomy's. I did this so that you can connect with others who have ostomy's. Click VIEW & REPLY in your email and you will be able to read what past members have posted about living life with ostomy's.
I wanted to introduce you to fellow Connect members @mlmcg and @hodagwi as they have an ostomy and may be able to help answer your question.
@jimmy2248 what symptoms do you have that makes you think you may have a urinary tract infection?

I have/had flank pain in side and back ; stomach pain and vomit. Doctor did culture and found bugs. Other doctors say that a stoma will always show bacteria as the small intestine is a mucus membrane. Just trying to see how others handle this scenario.
