Just wondered if anyone had done any long haul travel with stomas? I have a colostomy and urostomy and up to now have only done short haul flights to Majorca and Lanzarote.
This week, I’m attempting something much longer and hoping all will be ok! My colostomy can play up when I’m stressed and I am feeling a bit anxious about the long journey already!

Hi Sued
Brava elastic strips are adhesive strips, banana shaped, which go on either side of the urostomy bag and help keep the bag attached to your skin. I couldn’t live without them now!
