Do you happen to have an allergy to nickel? I am researching any connection of my nickel allergy to my years of overactive bladder.
Oh my God? I thought I was the only one. Yes, diagnosed about 15 years ago. I have urinary retention, and need to do intermittent catheter. I’ve been getting recurring UTIS. Since May I’ve had three episodes. I just completed taking Cipro yesterday, but I’m very uncomfortable, experiencing burning again. May need to get another culture to confirm if infection is still active.
I went to an infection specialist and she prescribed Fosomycin 3grams every 10 days. The Doc said it would eventually stop working. Anyway how often do you catheterize? I do it frequently as i dont want a backup of urine to my kidneys

I only do four times in 24 hours, every six hours. On two of those I get 350 to 400 cc. Other times, I get between 150 to 250. My doctor just recommended four times, but I think four is too few times. Especially since I get so many UTIS. May I ask how many times you catheterize?I think I want to do more times. Thanks
