Hi NHMIKE...this truly is an epic thread! I have not been all that active on this forum (utilize the Facebook groups a lot more). Wishing you well!

I saw that you had some concerns about your ostomy/appliance on the w/w thread. There are some great FB groups that have helped me a lot with those issues (permanent colostomy for more than 2 years)...including Stoma City, and many others as well.

That's not a bad idea. I just hate the concept of Facebook. I might have to set up an account - they seem to have monopolies on a lot of things.

Just a note to say that 4 rounds of Folfox is not equivalent to 4 rounds of Capox. This is because Folfox infusions are given every two weeks while Capox infusion are given every three weeks. Thus., Capox infusions have to be 1.5 times the level of Folfox infusion in order for the two regimens to deliver the same amount of chemo over a fixed 6 month period.

In sum, 4 rounds of Folfox will last 2 months, while 4 rounds of Capox will last 3 months.

My local oncologist is out of the office until the 9th so the earliest start would be the 7th week. That's later than I'd like to get started.

Bag stuff: there's a color indicator on the vent. If it's black, then it doesn't work. I think that it turns black when it gets wet and that can happen if I take a shower and don't cover the vent or if it gets wet from the contents of the bag (can happen when I'm asleep). Once the vent is clogged, I have to be a lot more careful with the bag to ensure that pressure doesn't build up from gas. I can't think of a solution to prevent this outside of sleeping on a chair or with my upper body elevated. That was nice about the hospital beds.

I was looking on the Convatec page and saw the ActiveLife One-Piece Drainable Pouch. Any comments on this for running? I think that a one-piece would be better for activity as you don't have as much of a protrusion. I think that some kind of belt or wrap would be needed as well.

I took a picture of my stoma last time I changed it and used the picture to make the whole smaller using the original template and the picture on my phone. Today I printed out the picture to life-size (I put a ruler next to the stoma in the picture and printed with scale adjustments until I got it life-sized). Then I drew a 1/8 inch border around the stoma and am going to cut it out and then draw it on a piece of tag paper and then draw it on a wafer. I'll take another picture on the bag change in the morning, compare it to the current template and make a new template if it has further shrunk for the next bag change. I think that I'm going to go from changing the bag every five days to every three days as I believe that will cut down on skin irritation and also cut down on the filter getting clogged.

On an unrelated note, I was looking around for Campbell's Biology. We should have two copies at home but I can't find either. I'd need to go through that to have a base understanding of biology to better understand the papers that I'm reading without asking my son for explanations all the time. I have a textbook on genetics around somewhere too. I think that I'd need a textbook on immunology and Cancer Biology eventually. But that's getting ahead of myself. Getting through Campbell's Biology is a daunting task at my age.

.If you change to a one-piece stoma bag, are you going to have to modify your stoma-bag change instructions? When I had a stoma bag, it was a one-piece Convatec bag, along with a StomaPlex belt https://www.stomaplex.com/ostomy-belts/. I walked, swam, played tennis, and did fast walking on a treadmill, but I didn't do any running.

    Changing stoma and wafer
    Supplies:

    1 Wafer
    1 Stoma Bag
    1 Tube Paste
    6 Packets of barrier wipes
    1 Disposable Glove
    Scissors
    Template
    Clear flexible bandage for wound
    Bandaids
    4 Face Cloths
    Toilet Paper
    Empty wastebasket
    2 Small Trash Bags

    Step 1: Remove Old Bag and Wafer and Clean Area
    - Peel off the old wafer.
    - Clean with facecloth.
    - Peel off old paste (stool may come out while cleaning). May need to rub with dry towel to get paste off.
    - Use wet towel to go around stoma; it may take a few passes.

    Step 2: Prepare Tracings with Template
    - Open Wafer Package.
    - Check template alignment and sizing.
    - Place template face up (ink facing me) on wafer, open in package. Template has top labeled.
    - Trace with a pen into the backing.
    - Cut with trace facing me.
    - Draw a T at the top.

    Step 3: Prepare the Stoma Wafer and Bag
    - Attach the bag to the wafer and press the ring firmly.
    - Close the bag outlet with Velcro.
    - Peel off the wafer paper.
    - Apply thin layer of paste from the perpendicular tube around the ring.
    - Flatten with tube tip.

    Step 4: Clean skin around stoma and create skin barrier
    - Use barrier wipes to clean the skin around the stoma and create a skin barrier.

    Step 5: Install the stoma
    - Before removing the backing, put on the stoma.
    - Hold it down for at least two minutes for the paste to warm up and attach well to the skin.
    - Remove the backing while pressing against the skin.
    - Press all the way around to ensure a good seal.

I've been modifying my instructions every bag change as I see optimizations or ways to reduce errors and I may be in this mode for a while. The latest changes will be taking a picture of the stoma with a ruler next to it to make accurate templates for the next change.

I like the idea of the Convatec ActiveLife product but it uses clips instead of the Velcro closure which I really like. So I'll need to ask them about that. I was thinking of getting a StealthBelt for running and tennis. That MeetAnOstoMate site also has a forum dedicated to active life (sports, etc.) and I need to look through that.

I grabbed Campbell's Biology, Eighth Edition last night and started reading and I was rather amazed at how easy it is to get through. For some reason, I thought that Biology, Chemistry and Physics were difficult from my recollection in high-school and college. It occurred to me that I'd probably need to read through Chemistry and Physics as well for a decent science base so I dug around the home library for a Chemistry book this morning and, of course, we have Physics for Scientists and Engineers with a choice of Serway or Fishbane. I would much prefer to self-study on an iPad as the Chem+Bio books weigh 13.6 pounds together but it would likely cost about $500 for a current set of eBooks and $500 for the iPad.

Here's the list of subjects that I came up with:

Physics I and II
Principles of Biology I and II
Chemistry I and II
Organic Chemistry I and II
Principles of Cell Biology
Genetics
Biochemistry
Molecular Structure and Metabolism
Cells to Systems
Cancer Biology
Advanced Cancer Biology
Cancer Epidemiology
Advanced Cell Biology

It was great and keep everything in place nicely. I only used one-piece drainable pouches the whole time also (coloplast mio worked best).

I requested a sample. I requested them from other places too but didn't hear anything back. How does the sample request process work (as in the process and how long it takes)? Keep the product suggestions coming.

The irritation isn't a problem today and I assume that's because of the new application of barrier wipes yesterday. But there's another problem that's fairly major. When I sleep, the stuff in the bag seems to go down the other opening of the stoma and comes out the rear end. It has happened recently as well but I think that I've figured out what's happening now. This is not the same as the mucus that comes out from time to time but basically the bag contents. I am going to sleep in a recliner until I can figure out how to stop this from happening. The recliner will keep the bag with the bottom down so that it doesn't pool around the stoma.

I managed to get an appointment with the backup oncologist for Thursday so maybe we can get started on week 7. The chest port surgery would be outpatient and take about three hours (I think that half of that is paperwork and preparation). The backup works with my regular local oncologist so I guess that I'd be back with him when he comes back from vacation. He's booked for appointments into late December. I'm going to call the Stoma Nurse next. I had a meeting with her at Pre-Op and right after surgery though I wasn't awake when the appliance was installed and don't know who did it. The person that provided my instruction was a regular floor nurse. So I'm not sure if the Stoma Nurse recommends the paste or not. But I'll ask her if I can get her on the phone.

Edit: All 3 Ostomy nurses are out today but one will be back tomorrow morning so I'll call her then.
