Maybe you need to see your ostomy nurse. The first few months your body changes
around the stoma. I had several changes when I first began. My best advice is
to see your nurse and have her help you with it. Hang in there...it will get
better

and expose my skin, under the flange. Maybe the hole in the thing is to
big. I'm only an ostomate for 2 months, and I don't think I have the
hang of this "portable toilet" I HATE THIS.
