I just ordered my "holiday stock" (which, in fact, should last like six months), and realized that prices have gone up once again. 😡 Like food, I t...

Yeah, compared to pretty much any wrap, the Pouch Pocket works way better!

The sticker should go on the outside of the bag, where the filter "exits". Unfortunately, if a leak develops through the filter, and you have to use...

It can "pinch" the output in certain situations (i.e. mostly when sitting), but not so much of a problem that it would prevent me from using or recomm...

Clogged filters can leak through to the outside of the bag, which sucks. And if that happens, you will notice a smell. You can cover up the filter wit...

That's incredibly frustrating. Leaves with little ability to plan or coordinate things. It's good that you're keeping a buffer, though!

Adhesive remover spray makes this so much easier! The first wafer I ever put on (before my surgery as a test) was so stuck, that I was using rubbing a...

Welcome to the forums :) I find that pouch covers tend to be fiddly when you have a belt like that attached. The ideal cover for support belt compat...

This is so unfortunate, and likely very true. Was your surgeon a general surgeon or a colorectal surgeon? The latter may be more in tune with these ...

I don't use the convex wafers, but have used Hollister bags for years. Smells, if they happen, often take several days (more than 5), and even then, t...

Hi Bill, I really can't offer legal advice, but if you trust what your urologist has said and believe that this rushed stoma site marking has lead...

A lot of people find the Sensura Mio locking flange a little cumbersome, but Coloplast has been adding new products to their line over the years in di...

Hey @smarty. I always prefer to use fewer products, if possible, but that often starts with finding the right appliance first. You mentioned in anot...

@kellbella This is a wonderful tip. Thank you for sharing that! Have you found that the hole in your wafer is ever too tight during the day (when y...

This can be confusing, for sure! I tend to go to the manufacturer website directly, as it's often easier to see what matches with what. But even the...

Pouch color options really suck big time. No real options for people of color, no real options for making your pouch not look like a medical device, e...
