Hello alanjay!
Glad to see you’re digging in and getting more information. Maybe you can check with your insurance on supplies? I’m guessing it would be asking for coverage on catheters and/or ostomy bags. Maybe some that use these can chime in with better descriptions and brands for supplies. Early on, my doctor went over all three diversions and where stoma’s were wanted because there were no guarantees until the surgery and she could see everything. And for you guys out there with the ileal, what kind of surgery and recovery times?
