Running out of the dry wipes to clean my stoma

Hi

Usually they just give you one pack per order but I was desperate so asked for 2 and they obliged .it doesn't say on the pack how big they are but they are approx 20cm by 20cm . I think I will request more on my next order too as I can't see the problems at the supermarkets ending soon .

Lots of love

Hi Peacock62,

You can use toilet or tissue paper and to clean your stoma you can use cotton wool.

I buy my dry wipes online from a large online retailer (who are named after a long river in South America). Just type in dry wipes and it will come up.

Take care.

With kindness,

Peacock62

Did they supply you dry wipes about the same size as paper towels which come in packs of 100, I would keep requesting 2 packs at least every month.

I place my monthly order on line with my supplier straight into my account (just like doing on line shopping) and in the ordering boxes I put in my request for dry wipes, the type I want and the quantity I want and have never been refused.

With the paper towel size I tear into 3 strips which is good at times for mopping up. 

Ask for more

LisaCardiff wasn't sure if you were setting a quiz question, if so my answer is Amazon.

To all

Have you seen my thread in the Bowel (colon and rectal) cancer forum group headed our daily Boris break tit bits I invite everyone to pop into the group and share your thoughts, your joyful moments, have a rant, has something annoyed you, post a family picture, have your say and help each other survive through the isolation period or lock down.

Keep safe and enjoy your Boris break

Hi Ian

Yes sounds like that but there's definitely not 100 in the pack about 50 I think but I will double up again on my next order whilst I don't mind using kitchen towel (Not that I can get any ) the wipes ate much gentler on skin.

Love your Boris Break thread cheered me up a bit had my chemotherapy cancelled yesterday !!

Stay safe

Lots of love

Hi there I have a permanent colostomy bag and at first I struggled with changing my bag but now I have figured out that it’s easier to just change it before my shower and then I wash it while I’m in the shower that way I’m not using any toilet paper ! 

i get dry wipes for free aswell when my ileosty bags and urosty bags are deivered 

Hi, I know I'm a bit late to the party, so to speak, but my supplier is Coloplast and I always ask for 3 or sometimes 4 pkts of dry wipes every order and they always send them. Just ask and they'll supply. 

Good idea thank you I will

Thanks for the reply , I put down for 3 on my order didn't realise you could change the complimentary items , my orders turning up today so fingers crossed

Stay safe

Lots of love Peacock62 xxx 

Good luck take care
