Hi all Monday morning I will have a void trial as had an indwelling cath in since 26th March what will I be walking into as well as hope to have the Cath removed finally? What do I expect after removal I have heard about uncontrollable bladder leakage (which is no big deal to me as always well padded) just wondering for how long? Many thanks

Thank you I feel a bit better now knowing I'm not the only one or a freak. Now I have to explore stuff not sure how to explore practically with "someone professional" as I am Autistic and learn both visual and practically 😢 which makes learning quite difficult

Hi all not sure if this is allowed here I hope people don't paint me as a freak, pervert, etc or I get banned as I am genuinely Incontinence (the Urologist thinks due to Retention and overflow since my spinal cord injury I can prove to owner snippets of Neurosurgeon, Podiatry, Urology reports privately if needed without too much personal identity). I don't think I am a DL or ABDL as if I hadn't had the spinal injury or bladder issues I would never have worn or new about those sexual areas existed only when Googling for incontinence issues (and how to cope as was suicidal at the start to the point due to needing Nappies/Diapers my Treating Psychiatrist wanted me hospitalized due to Bipolar Depression but no Hospital will admit anyone with ASD/ADHD for mental health at start of my issues in 2009). Would I still wear if I was magically cured yes!!!(unfortunately) as I have had no treatment until now as I refused to self catherise recommended by a different hospital due to physical Disabilities as well as Autism would make it difficult according to my current private continence nurse as well as I find them comfortable as well as I have bowel Issues (mainly bleeding which Previous GPs all refused referrals to relevant specialist until now I was supposed to have a Colonoscopy in April but everyone agreed to wait til Indwelling Cath is out as the prep would be too difficult for me to clean up accidents as well as need cleanness with the cath) I sent the following to my relationship counsellor I am not sure how to explain this.......... as it is awkward......... and sexual... was going to originally email you with my fake email account due to embarrassment.... not sure if it would help with my report. I think I may either mentally increase sexual drive or hypersexuality (my bipolar and ADHD seem stable in all other ways if it is related) as thinking about it a lot more lately but can't do anything due to an indwelling catheter until at least 22 May since 27 March as I don't know how to do it safely and it is advised against on medical websites as could cause internal damage, I will talk to my Urologist on the 22 May at my next appointment. Here is the latest I posted annon on social media sexuality FB Page looking for advice for example... When I tend to get hyped up I tend to post this kind of questions annon on FB as well as Incontinence forums as well as diaper fetish sites (which were the only information supports I found on Google as no incontinence websites you are the only person I have told this due to embarrassment but until recently I have had no professional support or continence nurse and urology departments refused treatment (until recently) for support and no support groups in Australia) just for information on how to handle incontinence mentally as products which my continence nurse didn't even know the products existed eg Nappies I wear etc) Well a bit embarrassed and awkward (hopefully not too much TMI) I am a 38-year-old male who has Physical disabilities (sometimes wheelchair bound) which incl incontinence (tapped nappies and sometimes Indwelling catheter), spinal and feet, and hand tremors as well as ASD, Bipolar, ADHD, and Anxiety disorders. Well, I only know how to masturbate with my hand on my shaft as haven't learnt how to any way other in a safe environment. The Sex Counsellor I saw a couple of times for a report for NDIA requested 12 hours (1 hour a month with a Disability Sex Worker) 17 hours with the sexual and relationship counsellor I am wondering how in Sydney would I physically explore toys (perhaps a trial with a Sex worker in a safe environment), as well as know what size I am for protection as I get hypersexual and quite bored with my hand. Sorry if the post is inappropriate, not sure where else to ask As well as I posted in the same FB Group thread Another question would it be inappropriate to ask the Urology Dept to ask what size condom I would be when they remove the Indwelling catheter? (as they would be looking down there to take the catheter out) Am I open of playing with myself in Nappy/Diaper yes I am also looking to explore more ways as I have never Sexually experimented as well as have a private look at ABDL/DL Unfortunately yes as my medical conditions depress me as my mobility and continence conditions are getting worse to the point my mobility condition requires a manual wheelchair more and more and my OT is apply for a portable mobility scooter as the wheelchair by previous OT was inappropriate for me and my support workers but I lived in a 2nd lvl unit with no mobility access and the government at the time gave me a budget of $1500. AGAIN I HOPE THIS WASN'T INAPPROPRIATE OR MAKE ME OUT TO BE A FREAK BUT LOOKING FOR SUPPORT AS I GENUINELY HAVE CONTINENCE AND PHYSICAL DISABILITIES AND LOVE THE RESOURCES HERE WHICH I WOULD NEVER HAVE NEEDED TO GOOGLE SEARCH IN THE 1ST PLACE WITHOUT CONTINENCE ISSUES

Hi all Well another month atleast with this Foley/Indwelling Catheter in well I need something supportive to strap it better and more comfy as had an issue where it tugged a little and well blood in bag. I use a 500ml day bag and the supplied straps as so uncomfortable and irritates me (I gave sensory issues ADHD and AUTISM) and find I have to always readjust it as well as the velcro is so annoying. As well as I am also looking for adaptive pants/shorts that open at the side (unnoticeable) I walk mostly and sometimes in a wheelchair and need the day bag upper thigh as I have issues bending (spinal issues) but hopefully the government will supply me with a portable Mobility Scooter (already did trials with OT). Would prefer from Amazon as I live in Australia Measurements are 117cm hips 104cm waist 97cm from waist to feet (Pants) 42cm from waist down (shorts) Many thanks

Hi I am wondering where to buy Bambino Ultra stretch internationally as may be cheaper than buying in Australia. Bambino.com does not ship here Many thanks

Hi all Currently in mental hell at the moment had Bladder botox (Bladder neck an Urethral Spinter on the 25 March) and had to have Indwelling Catheter due to retention issues on the 27th. OMG the relief from my bladder sensory issues Not having to wake up 4-5time per night to travel to bathroom which occasionally causes falls. Able to drink water without Bladder giving me issues so was restricted to soda based or other drinks. As well as other bladder issues I have had since 2009 since spinal injury. I really hate myself enjoying this relief (I am to keep this in til the 22 May when my urologist comes back) and I want a solution where he operates on me internally to have the same relief as the catheter (already been in full taped diapers since 2009 and find them comfortable) OMFG I feel like such a freak to the point I emailed my treating Consultant Psychiatrist of 3 years regarding this and requesting a Psychiatric assessment as well as psychologist as they both know I have been suffering. I suffer from under and overactive bladder and retention and can not safely self cath due to bad essential tremors in hands (had previous urological staff give up on me as I refused on medical grounds) I also have Autism, Bipolar and ADHD and since 2009 spinal issues at l3l4l5 s1 which neurosurgeon has written no treatment or surgery was an option. I was for a permanent solution for health safety (retention) as well as Quality of life solution but I feel so fucking messed up in the head that I am taking valium more regularly (Psychiatrist knows but isn't concerned as he did a phone safety check up on me after the emails I sent him)

Hi all Just had Bladder neck and Urethral Spincter Botox on Monday stayed overnight in hospital with an indwelling cath and leg bag but when being discharged I was having straining issues, as well as burning and was told by the recovery ward to go to treating GP the urology dept reception told me the same thing as I left with no IDC or AntiBiotics. Wednesday went to treating GP which told me to go to local ED (So I went to local hospital not the one that did OP) well they inserted IDC as well as a flip flow and gave me an antibiotic and referral letter to go straight to treating urology Dept the next day. Thursday Went to the Urology Dept well the receptionist was just going to let the nurse talk to me and make a follow up appointment with no action that day. Thankfully the nurse rang my treating urologist and wanted the flip flow replaced with a leg bag and will be called this coming Tuesday or Wednesday to see how things are going but I don't see the Urologist til the 22 May. Apparently I might get the IDC taken out on the 8th but I am going to request to keep it in until I see the urologist as I am going to discuss other treatment options as Botox if works only works for about 6ish months and then will have to take it easy no exercise or stuff for 6 weeks after everytime botox is done. Well I feel I am completely tolerating the complete urinary incontinence quite well (caused by IDC) except its bulky, doesn't fit under clothes well as well as I am slowly becoming more and more wheelchair dependent and have multiple falls which I am concerned will dislodge the IDC in future if I chose the as the perminate option as well as no sexual activity, exercise etc Today has been emotional hell as been over analyzing my future with my bladder to the point I ended up contacting both my Psychologist and Psychiatrist to make sure I am not made about wanting to be made completely Urinary incontinent without any external devices. As had Bladder neck and Urethral Sphincter Botox done Blader treatment options pros and cons 1. Botox to Urethral sphincter and bladder neck might not work. - Every 6ish months - Reduced workload 6 weeks afterward every time post-OP - Reduces efficiency over time. 2. Indwelling Catheter (cant Intemedite self cath due to essential tremors etc) - Falls risk I should be using a wheelchair a lot more often due to my spine and feet but it is not OH&S-friendly for support workers who require mobility scooters. - Will take time to adjust to wheelchair/ mobility scooter as will be more reliant over time due to spine and feet according to Neurosurgeon, Podiatrist, EP, Physio - Multiple falls to the bathroom. - Bulky does not fit under clothes well - Fear of dislodgement if fall - Has to be changed approximately every 3 months government is already paying for briefs and it is unlikely for nursing to change IDC. - Possible won't be able to masturbate/sexual encounters or exercise much except swimming with a flip flow. *POSITIVE- Am completely urinary incontinent for short periods no Frequency, controlled leakage, no retention NO NUMERMOUS FALLS TO BATHROOM AT NIGHT. 3. If able to make the Bladder itself incontinent (My wish) - Once off - Already have briefs that are more discrete than IDC. - Already previously advised by OTs, StateHealth clinical staff to use Briefs in bed due to fall risk. (Bladder is uncooperative regarding this as well as urinal bottle etc. - Possibly fewer infections than IDC and cath, - Briefs help with bowel marks (which I think is blood about to have a gastroscopy and colonoscopy done (the Gastrologist thinks I have IBS Constipation after initial appointment) as well as excessive sweating. Are there any pros or cons I am missing Thanks

Hi Would any one know of any other helpful Incontinence Facebook or Forum support groups as I have issues dealing with mine and find online support useful. Thanks

Hi all I am concerned regarding my Urologist who is a professor at my local hospital hence no one is higher than him. 2nd appointment (which was a teleconference with my support worker and carer at the time) He first stated there wasn't any solution then he wanted me to self Indwell Catherise (he stated this on the phone with my support worker or get support worker to do it) without any training or knowing exact size. 3rd Appointment (Dec) He stated he doesn't want me to be Indwelled catherised due to uti risks and have Botox to the Urethal Spinctor and prostate (but wrote to GP COPY AND PASTED "Botox injections to the pelvic floor and bladder neck given that he does have longstanding voiding dysfunction".) I signed relevant paperwork that day and was told have the procedure in February. 4th Appointment (28th Feb)Urologist never showed up nor communicated this with his staff as he was flying to London (I am in Sydney, Australia) and was not notified this until 30mins after the appointment and had to wait an additional hour for a different urologist who made me sign the same paperwork as didn't know if it was sent to Admissions back in December (thankfully as after the appointment I went to hospital admissions and found out my urologist never submitted the paperwork in December and refused to allow me to make a written complaint due to all the issues with the urologist. I forgot to mention he flat out refuses to communicate with my Continence Nurse (who is private and the urologist is public public system refused my a public Continence nurse) my continence Nurse is a Doctorate with a PHD and I requested him to do this numerous times. My question is Is Botox to the Urethal Spinctor and prostate and "Botox injections to the pelvic floor and bladder neck given that he does have longstanding voiding dysfunction the same? If so what are peoples experiences as I have a letter from admissions that I should have the procedure in about 3 months? And would people trust this behavior from their specialists? Many thanks

This is what I am fearing re Botox my urologist I think is extremely arrogant and says no chances of that. but I am prepared if that happens well I will ask for surgery you had as I am sick physically and mentally of my issues

Been diagnosed with under active bladder and urologist next month is giving me Botox at the prostate and urethral sphincter. Has anyone had this done as it is I tend to store 800 -1200mls before I feel it if I don’t have overactive symptoms that day. my private continence nurse and public health urologist has divided me on different treatment plans as urologist refuses to communicate with continence nurse

Thank you

Well I dont have sex but masterbate how do u do that with an indwelling as wont be able to take it out myself

What are one way valves are they the flip and flow ones? many thanks

Hi all What should I know about Indwelling Cath as had a phone consult with public urologist and he wants me to trial a size 16 as medications have failed and well I am getting up at least 5 times per night and nearly physically collapsed (thankfully support worker caught me) I am considering doing the valve system instead of having a bag

Yes my Bladder does get painful and well as really affects me psychologically and Physically (I drink pepsi max sodastream) due to cola and soft drink doesnt affect the bladder as much as water does hence it has helped fucked my teeth, causing light headedness, sick etc due to dehydration. I was just wanting to trial the indwelling Cath into diaper with a high dosage cranberry pill from Iherb and issues I will stop and I have support workers to help me with learning how to redrink, and hygeine etc

As it is these issues are really affecting me mentally to the point of thoughts of Self Harm (don't worry I won't as I have a fur baby that keeps me on my toes and hasn't had a depressive episode in years) as really who would want to really piss themselves but I think would be the healthier option ( a means to an end )overall if it allows me to drink more fluids including water (replacing caffeine etc) I have also mentioned this to my psychologist and psychiatrist as I also have Bipolar and Autism so it affects both and also mentioned it to Urologist (in writing but ignored my concerns and symptoms as well as my Continence Nurse has been sympathetic with me and I have emailed her.

Genuine Continence issue question to induce leakage as well as butt plug partially in a wheelchair. I have Bladder retention and leakage and over-sensory issues with the bladder (I also have autism) as well as issues with slight leakage and severe constipation of the bowels. Public Urologist has no confidence in how to treat me he expressed to me and my Support worker (who is also a nurse) I see my Continence Nurse early next month for a follow-up I am wondering Are there any reusable anal plugs to keep prescribed suppositories in for the required 30mins due to bowel issues due to spinal signal issues? Also looking at an Indwelling catheter to drain into diapers like a temporary stent (to stop the over-sensory issues and retention) I do not want a bag as I am mostly mobile as well as a bag gets twisted as well as pee can escape around the catheter as well as I can't self-cath due to disabilities incl Essential tremors in my hand which are too extreme. A previous Public Urologist stated years ago they can't do anything as they could make the leakage or retention worse hence the idea of induced incontinence as well as making myself physically and psychologically sick with dehydration as water aggravates the overstimulation of my bladder hence I drink mostly Pepsi max or coke zero with is damaging me teeth etc Has anyone done this if so any recommendations TIA

What should I look for in a portable reusable adult changing mat? As going to start getting much-needed support from a support worker for personal care I am 172cm I need help with personal care, including suppositories and lotion, and creams after baths. TIA
