I am a cancer survivor and a user of ostomy products. I like to hear from others about the alternatives available to the Coloplast Assura Conseal Plug (since they were discontinued by Coloplast). There are alternatives, one of them being the AMPatch stoma cover. Are there some of you who use it? Do they work as advertised? Concerns? Advice?
Thousands of thanks!

Hi, I think the AMpatch is an American product, so we don't get it in the UK. I would like to know if it's a good stoma cap too.
This is a remarkable community of 40,920 members.
You will get real advice from fellow ostomates who truly understand you - things you won't find in the books.
And it's not all about ostomy - there is friendship and relationships too.
Privacy is very important - your profile is not visible to the outside world.

This site has been a blessing for me in learning how to cope with and navigate this journey as an ostomate. I have a colostomy as a result of a perforation in my colon since May of this year. I don't know yet if it will be permanent or reversible. The people on here have provided me with so much advice and information about living with an ostomy that I don't think I could get anywhere else. You all have given me hope and a place to come to for support. I still struggle with acceptance, but know that it will come if I am patient. Patience has never been my strong suit! Also, I love all the humor, although it really pissed me off when I first came on here. Thanks to all of you.
