Hi
Does anyone use the Coloplast 11474 and 10512? I have been using a 1 pc. But would like the convenience of just removing the bag because after one day of wear it just smells.

I don’t need any pouches but there are lots on here that are uninsured so hopefully you can pass those along.
I rinse my pouch after any use but irrigate so that is not so much! It certainly helps with the odor.
None of the other odor methods seem to work very well! Itnis unfortunate!

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.

Try a two piece, Maried....of whatever brand. I use them and I think you'll like them. If you have to cut to fit, they're much easier to deal with and you can change the bag whenever you want to without taking the whole thing off. Good luck.

Living with an ostomy doesn’t mean you have to live with stoma fluid leakage or skin irritation.

Yep, as weird new life says, the two piece system seems to be the best fit for me. I can keep a flange on for over 10 days and usually the bag as well, but because the filters are pretty useless in all of the pouches, I have started to change the pouch every 5 day or so, depending on the abuse it has endured in that time frame. If you have not tried them, call Coloplast, Convetec and Hollister for their samples!
