What incontinence products do you all advise?

After the catheter came out, which I had no problems, I was incontinent. I had RP surgery. I could sleep through the night with two trips to the bathroom. I could not stand wetting a pad and then wearing it and smelling it. I gave it through my recovery time and then moved to a condom catheter with a leg bag. I had to experiment with tubing and bags and condom sizes and brands. But I found a system that works. Six years later I am still using the same method. When I want a break from the condom then I use the clip. I just had my consultation with Mayo clinic for an AUS device.

@tuckerp - I just came across your post and hope you see this reply. I am just one month post-kidney transplant today and, due to a traumatic catheter insertion, incontinent. So far, using pull-ups, pads, and a mixture of the above, experimenting. Appears that I will need the AUS in 6-12 months as I heal and my immunization levels improve. I was at Mayo Clinic Jacksonville.
I am most curious about the condom catheters and clips you've tried, discarded, and ultimately found to be best. I realize everyone is different, but learning from someone's experience provides a great base to initiate learning!
