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?

Short review. MAOM has helped me feel better by helping others it made me feel useful, worthy, important. It took my depression away. The more you use the site the more you get out of it.
