So in the middle of the night, I had a blowout....I didn't drink as much water as I should have yesterday, and at 4 am this morning, this is when I believe it started....So I am getting my supplies ready and my bathroom all set up and all, and then I realized I have no more wafers....guess what I was thinking to myself....that I'm a damn ass. How can I forget that I don't have any left....I was looking everywhere. I have some from another company which irritates my skin, but guess what...no choice....I change and all...this morning I go to the pharmacy to get some...guess what, they have none left in stock...their order is coming in Tuesday or Wednesday next week...the lady behind the counter saw how disappointed I was, and she said that she will look at something...she came back 5 minutes later and said that she will be able to get me some on an emergency. So in the meantime, I said okay, no choice....just hoping that I will not have to change again until I get the ones that I really use...I go to another pharmacy to see if they have any and no....so I'm pissed at myself....I come home, do some housework and all, guess what, my wafer is starting to leak and I'm in pain. I change and under my wafer, it's all red, rashy, and stingy....I'm really mad at myself....like this is like water for me, I should ALWAYS have some in the house...I'm soooo disappointed in myself, it's terrible....thanks for listening....
