I had a second visit with the Continence Nurse the other day, and she surprised me by suggesting I start thinking about intermittent self catheterisation. I really, really, don't want to do that, because the idea reminds me of the way I've reacted during the UroD studies, and my lack of flexibility in my hips.
This is for overflow IC.
Would it be wrong of me to suggest that I'd rather be permanently cathed, than go through the stress and angst of doing ISC?
I can see why they're suggesting it, to mitigate the risk of back pressure damaging my kidneys.
She's given me some pamphlets to read up on, but I'm only becoming more apprehensive thinking about it all.
