Looking for a reasonably priced (but still nice) rehab that’s effective. Any recommendations? Drugs and alcohol.

Swim59nj, I wanted to post this in the medical section, also to have Sheryl’s input. But when selecting the drop down menu for medical it wouldn’t allow a post. I’ll get the hang of it but for new users it’s complicated searching thru to get to the medical forum. Any advice is welcome but maybe time will train me.

Lopburi3, your response is incredibly helpful. Your description is exactly what we are dealing with, these things leaking at various times, every day and night, which as you know becomes hard on the skin. We thought the hard part would be getting thru that god awful surgery but then the equipment - not working - is a huge complication. He was using coventac and is making the order for coloplast right now.

I would suggest you try a website called realself.com It’s similar to a forum for all things skin, surgery, filler, laser, etc. People post lots of before and after pictures and they have to tag the doctor. You can get all kinds of information on doctors- all over the world. It’s a great resource for anyone looking into restoring a youthful appearance.

Would anyone know of any groups of this sort? My partner has a new IC stoma from bladder cancer and is having many problems. We can’t find an ostomy nurse. We live In PaTong, he had surgery at Bumrungrad in Bangkok and goes to Bangkok Hospital Phuket for his oncologist. We’ve been trying to find resources but have had luck only finding someone willing to order supplies.

My WiFi is down. Thanks for the resend. What a nightmare you went awaiting surgery. Luckily it didn’t seem to effect your outcome. Congrats on the 5 year mark.

Lopburi, thanks for the reply and for the recommendation, I can’t seem to find the Dr’s name though. Would you provide again?

My partner is currently undergoing chemo at Bangkok Phuket Hospital, and receiving excellent care, however we will definitely travel to Bangkok for the surgery. Hoping to find a doctor up to date on latest in recovery and reconstruction techniques. Any suggestions? Stg 3, T2b, high grade, tcc.
