Twice recently I have had a catheter removed. Both times I peed fine at first and then it got less and less. I ended up having to self-catheterize, which i hate and eventually putting the catheter back in. Have anyone else similar problems. My urologist seems to have no idea what the cause is. You would think with time things would get better not worse.
Maybe your bladder is in spasm?? Or maybe enlarged prostate??
Self catheterisation isn’t very nice at all. Very invasive. I’ve been doing it for 4 years. Best talk to your gp.
Good luck.
I do have some enlargement of the prostate and take m edicine to help me pee.
My bladder is not spastic. I just cant understand why I pee fine for several days and then it gets worse until I virtually only dribble. Why doesit get worse rather than improve, I do not know why the prostate would enlarge more. There is not much sign of constriction in self-catheterization. I cant imagine doing self cath for four years but it might be better than having a catheter. cheers ken
Hi ken10405, I was following a discussion on an other forum, this was in regards to self catheterisation, which I'm using my self. I would ask your question to a Urologist nurse ( debbi0140 ) she seems to be very knowledgeable and very helpful. I am new to the forum and I will try to ask her concerns about my self. Good look.
thanks for the lead. i will see if i can contact her
How do I contact debbi0140?
