@pidge32 I swore I smelled my ostomy when I first got it. So I had my husband "sniff check" me on a regular basis.

He said he could not smell anything. When I have seen an ostomy nurse and also asked her, she claims to not be able to smell anything.

Do you have anyone would be willing to "sniff check" you and set your mind at ease?

@susanf8 unfortunately my husband has no sense of smell. I’ll have to ask a friend, it’s just not all of the time.
Thank you

@susanf8 sometimes I smell mine also so I put a round sticker the company sent me with my ostomy products but it causes air to fill up and that can be a problem
