Thank you for your reply. I do have the deep convex pouch. I like it better raised up off the stoma. I also found the water wash bottle on Amazon and like to do it frequently. I feel cleaner. I like the 2 piece and when my ostomy stops shrinking (I think it’s almost done after 4 weeks), I’ll order the precut bases. I haven’t had leakage since the first week. I’m taking Imodium once or twice a day to keep it from being runny.
My husband helps me with the changing it which is great that he’s cool with it and involved. I’m just gathering info on what works & doesn’t fit others that I can try. I would like to have a reversal but I’m reading the stories of reversals having obstructions and more surgeries. I see my surgeon 9/5. To talk about returning to work and a reversal. Thoughts?
