Several years ago I saw a post re the availability of wide (2" ?) ostomy
belts. I made contact with a supplier but never (regrettably) followed up.
The advantages seem to be twofold: the belts don't roll or curl and don't
dig into your skin. Would anyone know of a source for such a belt. If so,
I'd be grateful for any information you can provide.

Many thanks,

PJF

Please post any info that you do find here. I would REALLY like a 2"
belt as well. ;-Deano

Actually the Nu-Hope support belt is even wider than you asked for,
but take a look for yourself:

Yep, I had one of these - too stiff -- too expensive - poorly made.
