Diagnosed in 2022, treated, now on quarterly reviews. I have a been using stoma bags for over 18 months and feel I've adjusted well but think joining this forum would be helpful.
I look forward to learning and joining in
Hi Latestart and a warm welcome to this friendly and supportive group. Looks like you have adjusted well and you are doing ok. Lots of varying experiences here, so always somebody with an answer to anything. Hopefully you will be able to use your experience to help others going forward. Best wishes.
Hi Latestart and welcome to this very supportive group.
In addition to this group we also have a stoma support forum which you might wish to join, where you can both get advice and tips, and hopefully be able to help others from your experience. Its good to hear you’ve adjusted well to the stoma-I’ve had mine for 4.5 years now.
I’ll put the link here, so if you click on it, this will take you directly there -
