With nystagmus, the eyeball might "jump." It beats from side to side, or middle to side, etc.
Subject: With nystagmus, the eyeball might "jump." It beats from side to side, or middle to side, etc. sm
Doubt antistigmatic--not a word. Astigmatism is something entirely different. There is no reference in Stedman's ophth for antistigmatic, but do believe they mean nystagmus for "eyes jump." Can you leave a blank? The author apparently doesn't know the correct word to use. Maybe the context of the sentence will help you.

colostomy
Subject: colostomy
I actually had that surgery. It is common to have a colostomy and then six months later have it reversed or sometimes they call it a takedown. There is a cecostomy that is a fecal catheter if I am reading right so it could be either colostomy or cecostomy.
An ileal resection is the treatment, so I don't know how it was put in as part of the disease.
