Gas... But not from my stoma?!?

It's strange when the usual becomes unusual... Today I felt as though I wanted to pass wind and instead of coming out of my stoma it came out of my behind! This is the first time anything's happened there since surgery, has anyone experienced this? (I have a double barrelled ileostomy, intestine and traverse colon)
Thx

Happens to me as well. I have a loop ileostomy so sometimes there is a bit of transfer. So don't worry- not alone from my perspective.

In a loop ileostomy some amount of transfer sounds quite possible, but when you're not attached at all it seems really odd. At least I'm not alone in this :)
Thx
