How do you attatch your leg bag and bed bag? The leg bag where it empties is either losens to empty or has a lever to pull to empty it. At least mine do.

Yea Dan, used them all but I don't have an indwelling catheter. Whoever is doing your personal care must scrub and use "sterile" gloves when changing your cath. If they have kids or love houseplants, they need dipped in liquid sterilizer. If you can keep your bladder acidic then you should be able to ask your doc about using Mandelamine. Great anti infective but doctors are afraid patients won't keep their urine acid. I'll suggest this again and you can ignore me. Get a very small leg bag and keep it attached to your indwelling catheter. Attach your leg bag and bed bag to it. It adds an anti backflow barrier at the usual point of infection. Handy for seeing if your urine is starting to look bad or to get samples for tests.

I get UTI 's all the Time and the only One of these I have not Tried is >> Collodial Silver. { I stay faithfull on the cranberry and vitamin C } but never go long without bad UTI trouble. I have a Supra-Pubic Catheter and doctors say there will always be infection trouble, But don't some of you with indwelling Catheters go long periods between serious UTI infections??? It's hard to be able to live in pain but always worry about infection killing you. Thanks All!! Dan H. - Saint Louis, Mo. c-6 Be a better friend, newshound, and know-it-all with Yahoo! Mobile.
