I think straight cathing causes your uti's. If you don't have a residual of 150cc's or more then your just introducing bacteria to your bladder. I only catheterize for specimens and I rarely get 100 cc's. My UTI's always seem to occur after they need a specimen.   john   In a message dated 10/14/2006 9:01:52 AM Eastern Daylight Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes:   I just obtained another uti. I believe the uti's are coming from not emptying my bladder all the way.   I use a condom catheter all the time but i straight cath every morning and night to completely empty my bladder. Well, last friday and monday night my aide them nights had a broken finger and i did not get the bladder empty. Now, Thursday/Friday, i have a uti.   Does anyone think this would cause it? Or is it just circumstances?   Thanks, Derrick C-5
