Seeking Help in Connecticut for Hernia Bag Issues

This topic is about a woman in Connecticut who has an ostomy and is experiencing issues with her ostomy bag due to a hernia. Despite consulting with two wound-care nurses, she continues to face problems with leakage or fitting. She learns best through visual and hands-on guidance and is seeking help from other women nearby who might have experience with similar issues.

Here are some helpful suggestions:

1. Identify the specific appliance you are using, including the brand, product line, and product number. This information can help others provide more precise advice.

2. Contact your current suppliers or the manufacturers of your pouching system. Many of them have ostomy nurses or product specialists who can assist you over the phone or through a video call. They might also offer free samples of different products for you to try.
