Need to change bag before eat or drink otherwise mt Vesuvius.
Any suggestions?

Hii

You will have to observe the pattern of your stoma discharge. Usually if its activity starts while you are eating and the bag is already one third full(before eating) then its better to drain it out/change it.

Same goes for drinking.

Hope it helps.
