I have an ileostomy

Normally I'm thankful for my ileostomy. This morning isn't one of those days. I normally change my bag, etc every 10 days. Being the weekend, i tried to get an extra day and that backfired...big time as i woke with a leak. Last thing you want is a leak.

A sad reality, at times. It's been a while since it happened to me, but no doubt it will again.

So sorry to hear, I worked with someone who had this and it seemed like such a struggle

I know how you feel has to be the worst way to wake up

Have you had the pleasure of having a major leak in public yet? I've had three so far, I don't want a fourth 😉

@Bushranger thankfully no, they usually happen to me when I'm sleeping

Its not a nice thing to wake up to. I am incontinent and ware a pad. I have had a few leaks as i roll around a lot when i am asleep.

I'm so glad you're capable of handling and discussing this
