Help I need  your advice,



I have had an indwelling Foley catheter for the past eight years. My urologist 
keeps telling me eventually, my urethra will become eroded and it will start to 
leak. This will cause me to need urinary diversion surgery, which I've told him 
I'm not going to have unless it's absolutely, positively necessary, because 
it's so invasive. So now he's telling me my next best option is a suprapubic 
catheter. Then he tells me that he may have to give me Botox in my bladder to 
keep my urethra from leaking. So I'm like, why not wait until my urethra starts 
to leak and then give me the Botox and a suprapubic catheter. I have a return 
visit in three weeks to let him know what I'm going to do. Any suggestions?


Have a Blessed Day, Naomi
