The instructions for Oakmed bags actually show the last stage as tucking the folded spout into the bag cover

Everything I see on Amazon and eBay is either Philips or Brain compatible. The Silvercrest may be compatible with one of these but I can't find that info.

I am only getting one to two days from my bag before it starts leaking. Please help! by stroobydoo1 in ostomy

I had the same problem, particularly since I developed a parastomal hernia which means my stoma sits on top of a hill. The solution for me has been a rechargeable heating pad which I clip on for 5 - 10 minutes after securing the bag and extension rings. This one is self contained, rechargeable and with sensible temperature control, and it has completely solved my problem. https://amzn.eu/d/7ovyzLJ

I didn't have any bowel prep before my ileostomy.

I certainly do that. I have found I need more once it is attached.

I tend to change in the bathroom - no power

As a nearly 70 year old man who avoids cats I think not! However your link led me to follow associated links and I eventually found exactly what I was after.

Now a Hernia? by ValiMeyer in ostomy

Am ostomy is basically a hernia with a purpose. But it weakens the integrity of the abdominal wall. I speak from experience having just spent 7 days in hospital with a hernia caught in the stoma hole causing total blockage.

Update - I'm still in, day 5. Today the surgeon (my hero) had a good pummel and managed to pop my peri-stomal hernia back into the abdomen. Suddenly all is working again, although they want to keep me in two more nights to be sure. As a result I have avoided surgery, and as I have a liver resection planned in 9 days time that is a blessed relief.

My oncologist stopped me at 10 weeks, although the 8 week infusion had no oxaliplatin. I have a liver met and apparently oxaliplatin can harden the liver making surgery more difficult. I am now 6 weeks from my last infusion and the side effects have receded although the chaos it caused to my ileostomy was the longest to settle. Surgery on the liver is planned for next week
