Our urologist help us diagnose & manage the bladder issues. The external catheters were prescribed and are obtained from a local medical supply office. Medicare covers the cost. The medical supply company sent us incontinence Samples
To try and we purchase from them. They are superior to anything you might find in any retail store. Attends are better than depends, but the Prevail brand is what the supplier carries and works well. The adjustable briefs allow for adjusting around the legs.
Bed pads are not cheap, but worth it. They Also come from the medical supply house. May also get lucky at estate sales or thrift stores.
