Hi, I just wanted to share that I met someone on MeetAnOstoMate.org. He lives in the UK but comes to visit, and we both have urostomies. It’s funny how similar our situations are, even though we’re from different countries.

Many name their stoma. I named mine Krakatoa—it either spews like crazy or stays dormant for days! How about you? Have you named your stoma, and why?"

My stoma is sore, bleeding, and so painful I can’t sleep. After 5 visits to my nurse, there’s no improvement. It’s ruining my life. Does anyone have ideas or advice? I’m desperate. Thanks! #ostomy

After 40+ years with an ileostomy, leaks & blowouts are now constant due to a hernia, skin-level stoma, & uneven skin. Nothing works well anymore. Has anyone dealt with this? Did you need stoma revision? Advice appreciated!

Looking for the best filter for liquid output. Considering switching to a 1-piece drainable pouch for my colostomy. Filters on my 2-piece Convatec clog quickly. Sampling Hollister Cera Plus & Sensura Mio Flip. Any suggestions?

What should I expect after 10, 20, or 30 years w/ a colostomy? Will I need extra surgeries as I age? For those with permanent stomas, is returning to a normal life possible? Are there any studies on the longest lifespan with a stoma? Tx.

I would just like to encourage everyone on MAO site that you can find true love after surgery. I absolutely found my life-long true love on this site or should I say he found me. My life will never be the same.” (А member of www.MeetAnOstoMate.org) ❤️

From MeetAnOstoMate forum: I reversed my stoma, and it was the worst decision of my life. Multiple surgeries, sickness, and no improvement. Now I’m looking forward to getting it back. We’re all different, but for me, the stoma brought relief and a better quality of life.

I’ve had an ileostomy for 6 years & started forming uric acid stones. My doc prescribed allopurinol, but I’m trying ACV & lemon juice. Anyone else dealing with stones? What works for you?
