I currently have a Hollister two piece. Tried the one piece, but was having issues with leaking and blowing up at night.
Would really appreciate any input on someone who has changed from the Hollister two piece. It is very bulking and when it is somewhat full it really bulges out from my shirt and seems to be very obvious. If anyone has used it before and has switched. I would appreciate your input. Thanks,

I use coloplast Assura for an urostomy. I'm very happy with the product. I used other brands and had a terrible time trying to get a good seal. I get anywhere from 4 to 6 days with mine. It's not that it's leaked, but I'm afraid to try it for a longer time if I'm going out anywhere. I'm going to try and leave it on longer when I'm at home just to get an idea how long it will stay on for me. Please if you are having trouble with your ostomy bag get in touch with Coloplast and ask for samples. That's what my nurse did and boy am I happy she did. You can tell by my name that things were not always so good for me. Good luck , LEAKYBAG

I WISH WE GOT THEM FREE IN CANADA!!!! I keep having to put them on my credit card. It really sucks as you all know they are not cheap. I use Convatec "Natura ". I get about 4-5 days out of them. I used the durahesive flanges and i hated them they did not like to stick to my skin. Stomahesive all the way for me!

I use Hollistier 1 pc with convex. I get 7 days out of them... They are the best I have tried.
