I'm using a Deep Convex Ostomy pouch and haven't had any trouble with any leakage. We changed the bag every 4 to 5 days. All of a sudden It wouldn't last mor then 2 days. I couldn't figure out what was happening. It was on the last change that I noticed it look like her discharge was eating the bags sealing area
from the stoma area out. My wife's diet hasn't changed she is on a feeding tube directly into her stomach with a special formula. could anyone give me any pointers on what to do. The reason I use a deep pouch is that she has lost so much weight.
