I have recently discovered a wonderful spray for under the barrier. Before placing the barrier on the skin, spray on Cavilon Barrier Spray. I had to buy it at the online drug store. No redness, no itching, and no need for any tape. I will be happy to give you any details I can.
looking forward

Hi looking,
Yes, it seems many recommend Cavilon! I just ordered a box of 30 sheets, as the spray isn't available for next day shipping. But I will get some spray as well!
Thanks for the info.
Regards,
Bob

Hi Deb,
As you can see, the outpouring of love and support from this website will help you to find the strength to lift yourself up and out of your current emotional situation. I am lucky to have my husband by my side through all of this, so I will not even pretend to know how you feel and what you're going through alone. I do know that I have great friends on this site and in my life that have been by my side, and hopefully you have many by your side as well. You do have a lot of new friends here. Please feel free to talk through anything that is on your mind. We all go through a confidence deficit when we go through an ostomy surgery. Our body has been marred and your mind feels that way sometimes too. It is tough to move on, but you will. You will be stronger once you realize that you are still the beautiful woman you were prior to your surgery. Hopefully, you can reach out to a local support group and find some additional friends in your same situation. It always helps to have a sounding board wherever you find it!

In addition to your pouching system, you may require the use of an ostomy accessory to enhance the performance of your system.

Thanks for the information. I'll have to try that... I've never heard of it.

Could you give me more information about the ostomy spray? I've been to the dermatologist who gave me cordran tape (tape with cortisone). It worked for a couple of weeks, but then the skin around my stoma became inflamed and very painful. I was having an adverse reaction to the cortisone.
Any suggestion you can give me is greatly appreciated!!

Hi Lavern,
Here you go. Didn't check to see if it's the lowest priced... so shop around. This is the spray... it also comes in applicator wipes of different sizes.
