Hi everyone! Male, looking for some advice on my bladder issues. I've been diagnosed 14 years ago and the last few years my bladder issues have been getting worse. I was on Tadalafil, Alfuzosin and Sildosin. I'm retaining 600CCs before I go and my urologist suggested intermittent catheterization. I've been doing that 4x a day for the last two weeks and frankly it stinks. I like that I could be fully empty and not have to worry about bathrooms constantly but I always have soreness, UTIs is a concern (trying to be as clean as possible and use BZK wipes every time) and last night I had brown urine and clots for some reason which luckily cleared up this morning (I did check in with the doctor about it). I've sampled about 10 different catheter types and are using the two of the least irritating pre-lubricated ones. Just wanted to know if there were any tips and tricks from the more experienced or even any other medications I should ask my urologist about? He claims there is none stronger than Sildosin and would discuss Botox later on (which doesn't sound that wonderful either). I would appreciate any help!
