Hi

I use Coloplast and the Brava Belt with four belt hooks that are specially designed for the SenSura Mio. I also tape the top of the bag to my skin with Smith & Nephew Opsite Tape. This adds strength and is easily removed. The belt costs about $20.00. Hollister has a similar system as do Salts.

I found 'Stealth Belts' too constricting.

Best,

Bryce

Angelica- As usual, you've written another interesting post. February 5th, 2019, was my reversal surgery after having an ileo for 6 months. I'm one of those fortunate success stories. Of course, things are different now, and I still have to be careful about what and how much I eat, as I don't have a colon. At first, I was afraid to leave the house. My biggest fear was having to use a public bathroom and have the toilet not flush! Even now, when I know that I'll be in someone else's home, I won't eat anything beforehand. I read other people's stories and sometimes feel guilty for having had it so easy, not to mention that I have a significant other who is 100 percent supportive. I've gotten so much out of this website and truly feel for those of you who have it so much worse than I. But I feel it necessary to let folks hear about the success stories.

Love my stealth belt but also wear a wrap. The wrap has pockets so you can tuck your bag right in!
