Hi everyone
Does any one know whether there is a waterproof covering for an illostomy bag . I have just started swimming again and the disabled toilet/shower room is very cold and uncomfortable for changing the bag afterwards
Thanks

Some time ago I had pouch covers specially made using shower curtain material, they were supposed to be for showering.
In theory you should be able to swim with just your pouch on and the pat dry afterwards.
The only products that I know about are the following Penguin pouch covers
I don't know if the ones for showering would work.
Regards
Ian
Hi Ian
Thanks for the information I will see I can give these covers a try I did try a cover from eBay but it just let the water in so sent it back. I've tried patting it dry but it just feels to damp to get dressed.
Thanks again
Lots of love Peacock62 xxx
