Post subject:  Long term / Permanent IDC / Foley user

Hi all

On Wednesday I was advised by my Urologist IDC is the only permanent Option I have (still wear full-on Bambino diapers) due to bowel bleeding and occasional catheter leaks due to spasms, as they are the only thing I find comfortable on my skin as my skin reacts to the cloth-backed diapers and pull-ups don't fit my body type.

Any tips for long-term Catheter users this has hit me pretty hard even though I had researched for years and knew this was the main solution that was going to be forced upon me by my body.

Does anyone have any suggestions regarding wheelchair/ scooter accessories for my catheter I am thinking of wearing a night bag when I have to use a wheelchair/mobility scooter (scooter when it gets delivered) that is discrete as today I went to a disability expo in my wheelchair and my 750ml was almost at capacity by the end and no idea where the toilets were or in what state as well as was too busy talking to providers trying to find extra supports?

Thanks
