Has anyone tried mineral oil? Or heard of any ill effects using it as a lubricant?

I put an Altoid mint in the bottom of the bag after emptying it. I have an ileostomy and yes, there can be odor, enough to make me gag.
MeetAnOstoMate is a pretty cool site with 40,092 members.
There are people here from all walks of life - musicians, firefighters, academics, artists, photographers, paramedics, police officers, teachers, mechanics, entrepreneurs, surfers ... and they all have a stoma.
The main thing is - here, everybody understands what you're going through. And that feels good.
Many come for advice, others stay for the friendships. Some have even found love!
And it's not all about ostomy - we talk about everything.
