Hi, I have a colostomy and I can't use adhesive products as they irritate my skin. I felt lucky to find New Hope products, and when there are no manufacturer cuts in the pouches, they work great with good seals. The extended wear allows me to change once a week. I received a couple of boxes with cuts in them; New Hope replaced one. I got another box with cuts in them and I have emailed and called multiple times with no reply. The pouches go on fine, but as they warm up from being on, and the integrity of the pouch has to hold anything, it gives way. Suggestions? I hate to change products; it took me so long to find this. Should I complain to a state or federal oversight organization, as someone suggested? Thanks.
