Greetings and I hope this finds everyone as healthy and happy as life allows. I have a question for anyone that has had the Virus. I just got tested today because I'm a little concerned. Because I haven't been feeling well for about 5 days but noticed a really foul outdoor coming from my output a few days before and now it's continuing while I'm quarantining.  I mean the odor is so foul, I can't my sh*t!  I'm hoping it's not the crud being immunocompromised like so many of us are, it scares the crap (pun intended) out of me!  I've tried eating yogurt, adding probiotics to meals... It's still really freakin gross!

Just wondering, thanks and wishing everyone good health and well-being!

Ahh, a fellow Arizonan! I did have the virus in early March. It's played havoc with my entire system in the aftermath. I use m9 in my pouch faithfully so I didn't notice a rank smell, but I did have outrageous output! I felt like my guts were coming out, an elephant was sitting on my chest and I hurt ALL over like nothing I had experienced before. The very first symptom was acutally pinkeye!

Probiotics and good bacteria is always a good thing. I'm pretty convinced that this horrible heat and humitity (for AZ) doesn't help.

I hope you get a negative covid report and than you get to feeling better very soon.

Take care, Vicki

I began my Urostomy life February 27th, 2023...a month and a half ago. I stumbled upon this site from another on Youtube and website called VeganOstomy and between that site and this one, most of my fear and worry of not having any answers other than calling the Dr's office recording menu and hoping to hear back in the next day or two for an answer to leaks, skin irritations etc, or just feeling alone and the "no one understands" thoughts I had to look forward to in my mind were all put to rest by these two websites and the community here at MaO!! I have been here for a few weeks now, and the help and support offered by the members here is just amazing!! The information and support is absolutely priceless for anyone recently out of their surgery and have tons of questions or had it for years...sit down...have a good read and you will see for yourself!!

Thanks for the warm thoughts and kind words! Fingers crossed... Along with my guts crossed in knots. I'll let you know the results of the 5 business day back up on top of the already 5-7 business day waiting period...Ugghh!  Be well and thanks again!
