I was trying to change my bag last night, got the first one all set, dropped it. Couldn't use it, it was all dirty on the sticky part. Got out another one, got it all set, stood up and watched the poop leak out from around the Adapt Cera Ring. Not good. Took that off, put on another one with no Cera Ring and went to bed. No leaks yet this AM, yet.Β

Hi Kittybou, I think it's all trial and error, and the errors help us learn what works. To be able to laugh about it is a bonus.

I had to redo mine a couple of weeks ago because I didn't get it centered well enough for my OCD. It irritates me to death when I mess it up. I think I've done that twice now in the 2 1/2 years I've had it.

I used to cut the wafer hole to perfectly frame my oblong stoma. Took 20 to 30 minutes. Sometimes I cut it too close and my stoma would sting all day. Now I use a barrier ring and cut the wafer hole much bigger. Now I'm done in 10 minutes with no more stinging later.

Your perseverance paid off! πŸ˜‚ These things can be a real pain in the butt! No pun intended, well, maybe a little.

I'm prone to complain,

About my butt that's no longer a butt.

But at least mine isn't called Ken,

And thus tightly sewn shut.
