After I got my urostomy bag I started having a lot more gas it happens when I get up from a chair or walk across the room. Does anyone else have that problem? Thanks Oregon Grandma

Gas is often caused by diet. I eat what I want so I have to put up with the gas. I also noticed that the amount of gas seems to get more as I get older.

This group has been my go-to during my loneliest hours whenever I've had a "bag blowout" at 3am and there was no one else in the world to talk to.
Because it's a global community, there's always someone here to lend an ear, provide advice, and just hold my hand if that's all I need.
Sure, there's also a lot of camaraderie, fun topics, and laughs, but the main reason I come here is for the total acceptance I get from the members. No one else on the planet could possibly "get" what I'm going through, not even my loving husband or supportive family.
The "Meet an Ostomate" forum is definitely a one-of-a-kind family, which I am very proud to belong to.

I agree with Bill, I too eat what I want so I put up with the gas sometimes I feel like I could be in Benny Goodmans Orchestra. I do however try to keep the real gas makers to meals I prepare and eat at home ha. At least it isn't odiferous.
