That's good to hear. I think most folks wear what works best for them...all things considered (discreet, cost, absorbancy, etc). You seem young for such a problem...it has been evaluated, right? Derry

jannie My understanding of the issue is your DH has mobility problems thus an accident once in a while and occasionally problems voiding. There are options to the self cath. In This case I would not suggest a Supra Pubic Catheter. A person who can use his own functioning plumbing but only needs to have a cath to use in times he can not void naturally. The possible problems of a Supra Pubic Catheter are more than just cathing occasionally and from my understanding can not reverse the procedure to normal function sphincter muscle which would cause an incontinence issue for the rest of life. Other than an adult diaper there is a type of collection catheter that uses a condom with a tube attached to a holding bag available at many medical supply stores and your hubby can use this for the times he is having the mobility problems, They can be used/worn for long periods of time in a day. They should left off for some time so they will not cause a tender spot or sore. If your DH has been going potty since he was taught how ask him how can doing your private business in the privacy of a bathroom or bedroom be an embarrassment? Every living thing has to matriculate, if it happens naturally fine if not then a means to do so must be found or death occurs sooner and even uglier. A self-cath is easy for most people and much easier for a man than a woman to accomplish. The procedure is not painful (just rather uncomfortable) if the proper amount of lubricant is used. All insurance plans and recently even medicare/medicaid approve payment for a new catheter every time, if Dotor prescribed. A viable solution to having to pay for UTI (from reusing a plastic tube that can not really be sterilized/cleaned properly) treatments as often. I hope some of this is helpful and your DH can make a choice suitable for his needs and dignity. Lil

Drop those bags at the front door lock it and then race to the john??? I've worn a pad (stayfree anykind except the little flimsy ones) for years. I also pin the front end to the panty so they don't drop out on to the floor somewhere. Just making sure I change them a lot and keep doggie doodoo bags to put them in in the bathroom trash. I like to shoot a spray of some kind of fem deo spray around the panty area too. (for my own peace of mind) I'm also trying not to drink a lot at night say from 8pm on no sodas teas etc. I use Biotene for dry mouth so sometimes just a drop or two of that will moisten my mouth. As long as you can go undected it's ok out in public. I think men have the same problem but don't talk about it/. I want to mention that if you get any little sores on your bum/ cheeks/ rear= end because of whatever - a good product to have on hand is "no sting spray on bandage". a few rub-ons of it makes a protective coating and they will heal faster saddle sores. . . .

I'm sorry but they both bite. Is this the best our great land can come up with? Hillary Clinton & Donald Trump are now equally unpopular. http://fivethirtyeight.com/features/hillary-clinton-and-donald-trump-are-now-equally-unpopular/ Donald Trump and Hillary email statements vid. Did he do this on purpose to bring attention to himself during the Democratic Convention or did it just start out as a joke? http://www.nytimes.com/video/us/elections/100000004554702/trump-urges-russia-to-locate-clinton-emails.html?smprod=amp&region=img
