Re: [peoples with ostomy2] new bags

Hi Jacy,
I can't use the other bags because they dig into my leg because I've got
cerebral palsy and the clips left huge marks on in my inner thigh the lock and
roll is better

Hi Min,
I don't want to burst your bubble, but I tried the lock and
roll from Convatec, and I too thought it was working good.
Until, one AM I got up, and had a huge mess on the
carpeting because the velcro didn't hold. But, I didn't
learn there. I continued to use them, and then had a mess
at work (in the bathroom) because the velcro didn't hold.
So one word of advice..Beware! !
Jacy
(If you like the bags, just use a clip on the end.)
