Trying to find out what and why? I was wondering if this happens to anyone else.
When I empty my bag, sticky comes out. Like glue sticky. If it gets on my hands or anywhere else, it's really hard to get off. In the shower, if I shower bagless, it even gets on my legs and elsewhere. I've been going through this for months. I'm trying to figure out is it the adhesive in the pouch or is it something in my stool. I'm not thinking the adhesive because I've tried every bag there is and the same thing happens. This has been going on for 11 months now and I have had an Ostomy for at least a few years. It's really taken a toll on my quality of life.
