All good points. I had an illeostomy for 8 months and now a permantent
colosomy. For me, trying eakin seals, and samples from the vendors,
was the key - while recovering at home, I tried a number of things -
after the samples came in, it was pretty quick to figure out what
worked. My wound nurnse (ENT) was helpful also. Now it's been years
since I have had a problem, leak, etc. I just go on with life and
don't worry about the pouch, any more than you " worry" about normal
hygene.
Good luck.
