It will give you energy and relieve some of the tiredness, i have used it and it works.
I hope it helps and no, you can keep your beloved outfit.
All the best mate.

I was born with Herstbrungs disease which is a disease in the bowel, long story short I was in a bad way and had the colostomy bag for years as a kid, they eventually cut a quarter of my lower bowel out and now I'm good as gold.

If theres that option mate from first hand experience I'm living proof it worked. The bonus is that your body can't absorb as much nutrients and fat as normal so I eat and drink heaps.....YAY!!!!

G'day AB,

I have already had one section removed, unfortunately these bloody Perianal Abscess are a nightmare to fix! Especially if you also suffer with Crohns disease. I had the colostomy bag fitted 18 months ago. Was due to have a reversal procedure on 11th March. Unfortunately, the bloody Crohns disease coming back has put a stop to that.

Regards,

Paul
