It sucks to be me! (Ostomy Related)

Is the Ostomy getting you down? Fed up? Cheesed off? Don't want support for a problem but just want a damn good moan? Then post in here and get it off your chest. Its good to vent. Just don't be too upset if someone posts telling you to stop feeling sorry for yourself.
