Does anyone use Comfizz garments for hernia prevention and ileostomy support? If so, are they effective?

I'd like to know the answer to this as well, my stoma is still new and hopefully soon my stoma nurse will clear me for using a stoma belt. There are a few from Comfizz (lol autocorrect thought I was trying to type Cow Fizz!) that I've been looking at ordering.

I’d like to write a nice review
that might express something quite new.
Then I read previous points of view,
which said the things I wanted to.
I would endorse the things I’ve read
about what other folks have said,
for these are the benefits and things
that joining a site like this can bring.
When I was an initiate, (novice)
it seemed to be appropriate
to express myself in rhyme
as this is how I spend my time.
When contemplating what to write
with contributing to this site,
it seemed to me, my ostomy
could be expressed in poetry.
Thus, when I had something to say,
a rhyme, for me seemed the best way,
for rhymes can often capture stuff
that prose don’t capture quite enough.
I do appreciate the way,
this site lets people have their say
in whatever mode they will
about the things that make them ill.
There are not many forums for
discussing stuff most folks abhor.
So, this site fulfils a small niche,
where angst and problems can unleash.
Where raw emotions can decant,
so, folks feel free to have a rant,
and we can all associate
is something I appreciate.

I have the stoma protector from Comfizz and I like it. It provides great protection from seatbelts, children playing, and dogs jumping up on me. Comfishield, it's called.

I haven't yet gotten any underwear from them, but it's on my list of things to try out.

Just my opinion, but stay away from Pouchwear and Ostomy Bag Holder. They are the same company and have terrible customer service and false advertising.

I was thinking of getting a shield. Do you know if you can wear the Comfishield with the Nu-Hope belt?

I believe you can, I should have my new Hope belt soon and will be able to give a better answer. The design is a large Velcro pad that the protector attaches to. I've been able to wear it with my vertical pouch belt with no issues, no Velcro touches your skin.

I've been told the order is in and so far no pushback from my insurance, hopefully I get my belt in the next week or so. So I should have an answer soon.
