@pez01 thank you so much for the advice. I have cottonelle wipes, I just wasn't sure if it was something I could use but that's a great option. I'm definitely going to look into those bags, I've heard good things about the brand. Did you get the whole system or just the bags, I wasn't sure if anything is interchangeable or not? I know the hospital gave me hollister.

@dgroves0430 I do mix products as I found what works for me. I tried every ring and found none really worked for me so I dont use them. I love the skin tac after someone recommended it, I found I did not need to use skin barriers or glue removers The skin tac washes off with warm water. I do take hot bths so I soak my stoma quite often I will use skin barriers only when I go out not at home After two years and trying a lot of products I find the less I do the better off I am Just ask for samples tiill you find what works I also do buy Ostomy disposal bags on Amazon They are black and zip lock closed
