i have residual of 300cc's of urine
left after voiding/pissing..
I void at 600cc's.
I have had problems ever since my
injury 9 years ago.
I drink plenty of fluids.
No urologists wants me to take an
everyday antibiotic but i get a uti every 3 months or less.
I end up with taking Cipro
mostly.
I have a bleeding hemorrhoid that has
my blood down so low that I'm in a need of a transfusion.
The doc tells me if they cut them that
there is a great chance i will lose control of my sphincter muscle.
Not a good thing imop.....
Has anyone had this
sugery?

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.

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,
