This sounds so strange to me Daphne. Did the new doctor give you a diagnosis as to WHY your bladder isn’t emptying completely? There could be many reasons. As to self catheterization…go to the main Mayo Clinic page and put “self catheterization” in the search box. Many posts about it came up when I did that. You might want to join a second chat group about self catheterization and chat with others in that group about their diagnosis and why they are now self catheterizing. Did you make an appointment with a nephrologist yet?

Great question. I had no idea she was heading in the direction of self catherization. I Absolutely did ask her why this is happening to me and she said "I do not know", but you need the pain to go away. How does she know it will take the pain away, she doesn't. It's like I'm an old car and checking out the possible parts that may be bad, work on them until she finds the part that needs repaired. I am dumbfounded.
