    I can't believe your doctor didn't order that you were trained to do this....anyway, click the link http://www.howtodothings.com/health-and-fitness/a3638-how-to-clean-an-ostomy-bag.html


     

    Insist on having the nurse teach you how to clean.  I helped my friend who had a few kidney stone surgeries last year.  It's not very pleasant.  And while you're with the nurse, ask for a lot of gauze and other supplies to get you through.  Keep asking because you'll need lots of supplies to make your life more pleasant in the upcoming days.
