Cancer Survivor and Newbie to Forum

Hello. I am new to this forum and don’t know if I really belong here. I am an eight-year rectal cancer survivor. My radiation and colostomy reversal left me with frequent flatulence :stinks: and I have been dealing with it for a while with the activated charcoal panty liners. It is an excellent product, but I am just looking for other options. They have served me well and gave me a large portion of my life back. I have been able to enjoy my grandchildren who were born after I went into remission and go out in public.

I am not familiar with Crohn’s disease and not sure if those with Crohn’s have to deal with the same thing that I have been battling; however, I thought I would join the forum to get some suggestions. I know that controlling the diet helps. I am looking for another product that is available in this country, that I can customize for my needs. There is a company in England (MyShreddies) but they don’t have a location here in the U.S. A. and I have never used them.

Because my condition is so specific, with details that I don’t care to share, I am still looking. If you have any information on a product that will help, it will be appreciated. Is this a Crohn’s survivors have to deal with this concern also? Thank you for any info.
