Have any of you tried the deodorant tablets? They seem much easier then carrying around drops. I am so overwhelmed with all these products!!!

never heard of them. But try them out for us and let us know. I hate carrying around the M9 drops too. But M9 definitely does work... well if you use a lot more than a few drops!
laura... how are you doing now?

I have used Fresh Tabs by Perma-Type for 3 years with good results. 500 tablets to a bottle. I order them along with all the other products. 
Liz, I am doing ok. Stayed out of the hospital for two weeks now! I consider that progress. I am getting stronger every day. My energy level is low but I am starting to get out of the house for short periods of time. We took our little one pumpkin picking yesterday. It was great to get out. And although I am still in pain it felt great not to have to find a bathroom! I am starting to see the light at last! I saw my surgeon on Thursday. He said to give it about six months to heal. He said he put me through a lot and I need to give my body time. Are you still out of work? If so, how long do you anticipate being out. I have to battle my short term disability carrier every few weeks and am not looking forward to it. I wish I was rich and could just take a year or so off. But a few months will be good. Another question, how long did you take pain meds for after surgery? I am going to order the deodorant tablets tomorrow and will let you know how they work. Hope you are healing well.

Does amything work for reducing gas in the bag?
I searched for over 3 years for a solution to the smell and gas .... tried tabs, liquids etc. Nothing worked well.
Devrom is the answer. Look it up. Take 2 capsules a few times a day. Smell is GONE. I travel with ease now

My Ostomy Nurse suggested dropping an Altoid into your bag when emptying. Not quite "minty fresh," but pretty effective!
I use a great product, I believe it came from America, it is called Na'scent, I get it from my supplier in the uk. I have tried numerous things and this is the only one that has actually worked, when I change my bag I put in 6 drops and that usully lasts the day. It does say you should put drops in everytime you empty , but I find that is not necessary.
