Unhappy New here

Hi all I'm new here was just diagnosed with Neurogenic bladder. My urologist wants me to self cath 4 times a day. On Monday and Friday I work eight hours in security (can't leave post) and take Lasix as well. I can't help but wonder if it Is just easier to wear a Foley on those two days verses trying to fit in a straight cath as quickly as I can. Is this even feasible?

You have MS I assume.

I'd say whatever you feel is going to work best for you.

I don't know anything about Neurogenic bladder as I am the opposite(I don't have retention) I have urge and gotta go gotta go type stuff. I take meds for it and it is effective. My username says it all.... P is for......Pee

The opposite(what you have) seems like it would be more frurstrating, not being able to go... sounds painful. Personally I'd see if yo ucould get out of that position and if not, try different methods till you find one that works great.

That's all I have, others can help you more.
