I went to my Internist the other day for a non TM related issue. Since I had him cornered I asked him some questions about my TM. He has been seeing me for years and has been involved since my TM.
I asked him about my urine retention problem. ( I have been cathing 4 times a day since my TM, Oct. 2006). He told me that usually someone who has been cathing for over 6 months usually does not get back to normal. Is this true? All that I have read and my visit to Johns Hopkins says two years is the target. Am I destined to cath now for the rest of my life? Should he have said that without knowing for sure? I try to think positively but when you doctor of many years tells you that your bladder will probably not come back it is difficult to keep a positive attitude. Thanks for letting me vent.
