Re: [QUAD-L] uti's

[S. Dial]

When I lived at home I rarely got infections. I believe it had a lot to do with keeping the bags properly cleansed, too. At home my caretaker would rinse out my bags with hot water then half fill them with a equal mix of white vineagar and water then hang them over a towel rod in a way where the connector end came in touch with nothing - I stayed UTI free for years. Here when they do rinse it out it's not always throughly or with hot water and they're required to put them in plastic bags so I keep a steady UTI! I've put up written instructions, I've talked and tried to make them understand but it's hard because some care, some don't.   Steph
