I have returned from my 11 day trip to Paris with my ileostomy. Despite my
very best effforts, I did get pretty dehydrated going to Paris, but not
coming back. I did empty my bag at the beginning, middle, and end of the
flights. I had failed to get an aisle seat. That wouldl be helpful next
time, as I did not like to make my husband and a fellow passenger get up to
let me go to the bathroom. There were no problems with the ostomy supplies
or bathrooms. I generally used bathrooms in our hotel or restaurants. We
took one jar of powdered Gatorade to mix with water and carry everywhere,
which was great. It just wasn't quite enough for 10 days. I would
recommend 2 jars. Thanks for all your advice.
