Does anyone have any experience with using Johnson's Baby Shampoo to wash around the stoma? I recently discovered that the Dial soap I was using has moisturizer in it. I remember the nurse at the hospital using it when she changed my stoma after surgery. Hopefully, I found the culprit as to why the change with my wafers not staying on very long and leakage recently. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks. Rod

I take part in these forums almost every day. They and the people that contribute to them have made all the difference in my having the courage to live a normal life with an ileostomy. The people here are marvelous and come from all walks of life and from all over the world. Hearing what others have lived through has really helped me put my own experience in perspective. I highly recommend all ostomates and caretakers of ostomates to come join us.
