I was thinking about this last week. My IC can be sporadic in intensity and you wonder sometimes if it is "safe" to just use a pad or, shall I say, go without. LOL. I decided quickly that the Boy Scout motto of "Be Prepared" is always a good one to follow. Considering that I wear an appliance for my ileostomy, it seems like a no brainier to make sure that if something leaks or a seal breaks that I have a good layer of protection. If something does happen I have my little "kit" that covers both bases and I can get going again.
