Sometimes even we get second opinions problems will arise. I have a ileal conduit I don't know which ones would cause fewer UTIs. That's a good question. I wish you also a blessed day. Dana In a message dated 11/5/2013 4:46:42 A.M. Central Standard Time, [email protected] writes:

Nicki c5/6 From: Naomi Hudson [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, November 01, 2013 9:47 PM To: [email protected]_ (mailto:[email protected]) Subject: [QUAD-L] Suprapubic Catheter 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
