Hi, I'm not here to advertise any product. But since getting a melon sized hernia and switching product lines, I find myself from changing ports and bags every other or third day to now often seven days and tomorrow will be my eighth on this one port. I do change bags out of convenience when severe pancaking occurs and it's just a pain to rinse out which I normally do to my bag. (Just a personal preference), but that is not often. I never could have believed that anyone could last 7 days without a major blowout but I'm living proof. Is it the hernia curvatures or the product line? Please share your thoughts. I am purposely withholding product info for right now because I'm interested in your experiences rather than a product discussion just at first. Plenty of time for a full disclosure soon.
I usually change my bag every 4 days but have gone 7 days before without issues.
I went 8 days last week. When I changed I saw no seepage. I use the Sensura Mio Click with a wafer. I was home and didn't have to worry about a surprise blow out. This week after 4 days I had a "feeling" that I should change. I saw that oozing under the wafer had started. If I had went to work I probably would have had a incident later that day. Trust your feelings, especially if insurance is paying for supplies.

I wish ... three days is my cycle and never been more. I do have some other products to test drive though .........
Lol ...and I thought from the subject that you were talking about a cruise being at port for 7 days !!!
I change bags every seven days. I am very lucky that I have had no problems.
