I Catheterize Myself
yes I do - and very glad I can do it for myself. I've needed them now for about 5 years, and wouldn't do well without them. At the same time, I've realized that if I've got to have them, might as well enjoy them - which one can.
They're great - like wearing your own personal urinal. Instead of my body controlling my schedule, I do - I can tell when my leg bag is getting full, and can empty it at my leisure. Driving, I can put on a bag large enough to drive all day long without needing a rest area - and for the first time in a long time, I can sleep completely through the night without being interrupted by the need to pee - wonderful.
