I am new here. I am a 27 year old college student. I am wheelchair
bound and have a colostomy and superpubic catheter. I was informed
today by my school counselor that there have been complaints by
classmates of an odor about myself. What is really discouraging is
that I thought I had a handle on this and I am at my wits end about
what to do.. Has anyone had a problem like mine and can offer any
advice. Thanks in advance
Phil
