Hey W, I have not subscribed to the quad list since 2010. A long long time ago (either in the 1980s or very early 1990s) I remember trying Renacidin for sediment and I very recently asked my urologist if I could try it. I know it is very hard to find but, ironically, there is a pharmacy that delivers nearby has that has it. I received it last Thursday but it arrived in two separate containers. A glass container with the Renacidin (but requiring a syringe and needle to get it out) and a plastic container full of saline. No instructions on what ratio to use, etc. etc. Needless to say I can ask my doctor to prescribe a ratio but a quad who lives nearby has his delivered from the same pharmacy but it comes already mixed together. My sister (who does my instillations with sterile water/vinegar solution twice daily) read an article about Renacidin and because it says that it can cause symptoms and death... she won't use it. What a predicament! Yesterday I did a simple Google search on "quads and Renacidin" and guess what popped up? The following: From: Paul Jacobson [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, July 30, 2013 12:53 PM To: [email protected]_ (mailto:[email protected]) Subject: [QUAD-L] Renacidin Solution "Hi, I use a suprapubic catheter and irrigate it each day with Renacidin solution. The manufacturer has temporarily stopped making it. There is now a shortage. Does anyone have any Renacidin they are willing to sell?" I am not wanting to sell it but want to talk to another quad who has been using it. The above really does not give me his e-mail address so I was wondering if you could ask him to e-mail me. Using this e-mail of mine. Please tell him to put in the subject something like "From Paul from the quad list" or something similar. I hope you get this and hope you are doing well! Every once in a great while I would get a chance to check the archives but nothing has come up that I have been interested in.
