I'm sorry! I know how uncomfortable catheters can be. I hope you get well soon. Oh dear. I’m sorry! I know how uncomfortable catheters can be. I hope you get well soon.

Make sure the gas fully escape before drinking. Tastes better. Orange flavoured. Take care. Suggest Potcitra effervescent powder. Make sure the gas fully escape before drinking. Tastes better.

Keep it aseptic too. lots of discipline needed, but it is worth it in the long run. Keep strong. Most important is still regular self-catheterization.

The catheter will feature very prominently in my life for the rest of it. I have been doing intermittent catherisation for the past twelve years. Thank God it is only once every three hours instead of indwelling. DJ, The urologist gave me a choice of potassium citrate mixture, Urocit-K (tablet) or Citravescent (effervescent). I am more familiar with the mixture because I have had lots of it going through my system for many years. I guess I am a little masochistic also. Just to help, I wonder if Citravescent tastes the same as Potcitra. Still, potassium citrate mixture will be my first choice to remind me to take better care of my urinary system, which I had neglected for a while now. Meesh,
