I went through a lot of the same issues you are having since I had my ileostomy replaced with a BCIR in 2009.
I'm not sure what products are there now. Have you followed up with an ostomy nurse? They may be able to
help you.
I too live in Vero. We could meet for coffee at one of the Paneras; we can compare notes. I'm not sure if I would be
of any help. Like you mentioned, support is always nice.
Hi
I too have a BCIR, got it in 2013, and a revision in 2017. But I am having issues with it for a few years now. It is no longer "reliable." Are you facing the same?

Well it's just coming upto a year since I had my emergency stoma. Since joining MAOM I have learnt all different kinds of ideas to help with the stoma. Not only that I have made a lot of good friends who I can talk to. The beauty of this site is it's not just giving tips and ideas we talk about anything and everything. So thank you for giving us a great site. XX
