Any ideas on how to stop this leakage problem I have developed after 32 years with an ileostomy? I have gained weight but just all of a sudden my ostomy appliance will leak day I change or next day? I used to get 6 to 7 day wear time with torbot facepalte ,and sealtite gasket,eakin ring and paste now I"m lucky to get one day if that! I have a dip now on left side of stoma and my stoma has always been flush.I went to stoma nurse, she helped me 32 years ago and also has ileostomy, but It just is not fixing my leaks,she told me try Hollister New Image and I did with belt still 2 days and leaks?Any ideas or information will be gratly appriciated.
