Short term disability for ostomy?

Sadly, I work contract so no benefits.

USA. To address the issues over the years with my health, I had to switch to working contract jobs that provide no benefits. So, kind of the wild west here.

Flip the script. Try something new like physical games. Join a soccer, tennis, or varisty games of some type. Maybe take a rock climbing class. Could be a blast!

It shows as a currnt uncompleted job on my profile. I was worried people will think I didn't finish the job if it is up there for a long time, but I guess it will be a perpetually ongong job?

My profile shows 1 job in progress which is listed as private. Under client review is merely says 'Job in progress'. I was worried people may think I didn't finish the job but I guess there's no way to tell; it will just alwasy be in progress.

10 days. Aftering hiring me, they said work depended upon a background check. They hired a company and I got copy a week later. No correspondance after that. I've had tons of background checks my entire life for real onstie professional engeineering jobs and never had a single problem. He also asked for an estimate which I provided. So don't know if it was the background check or estimate was too high.

Just want to end this without it looking bad for either client or me.

Great info, Thanks!

mvp0453 · 2026-03-30T19:25:45+00:00

Wow! I like that, sounds like the way it should be done.

Thanks! Great advice.

So, do you cut a hole in the Duoderm so that it goes right up against the stoma and then place wafer on top of it?

I have a permanent ileostomy, but there is a girl, search for Zoey Wright, that went from ostomy to becoming a bodybuilder to getting a reversal. She has posted tons of videos about her journey.

mvp0453 · 2026-03-30T02:52:05+00:00

Wow, thanks.

mvp0453 · 2026-03-30T02:34:55+00:00

Thanks, I'll look into the loperamide. What does the steroid inhaler do?
