Hi Folks,
I recently changed from my usual one-piece Coloplast or Hollister pouch to a two-piece Dansac pouch.
Difference in reliability has doubled, I can hardly believe it.  If anyone out there is having trouble with leaks, I can fully recommend this system to anyone.  I have a dip under my stoma too, the Dansac flange sits neat and securely over it without the use of any 'extras'.
Emptying part is not as good as Coloplast in my opinion, but the bottom does fold up and is secured in place by a bit of velcro.
I change the pouch bit every day and the flange lasts up to 3 days.  This has given my skin a much needed rest and I'm the most comfortable in the 2 years since the op.  If anyone wants any more info, just let me know.  I'd be glad to explain things in more detail.

New ostomate, we’ve all gone through feeling low and depressed over your ostomy.
This is a pretty open group. Right now, in summer, it’s a low response time—lots of family things going on. If you need something, call out. Someone dealing with your situation will post something sooner or later.
It’s just that time of year.
Take care, and good luck.
