@donpeg, good question. I added your post to the Ostomy support group too. I'm also tagging some fellow urostomates like @msrollo1960 @katey122 @gordy6898p @katydid77 @ggarrepy @jmcmurdo to see if they have some tips to help your husband sleep more comfortably.

Donpeg, how long has he had the urostomy?

October 8 2024. He is an engineer and is trying to design a fix. If the bag fills up and doesn’t drain the seal breaks. Not draining is sometimes caused by the valve. Bd/ Bard should invent a nighttime bag long enough for a patient to sleep comfortably and turn.
