Watch me pee as a paraplegic//I tally how long it takes me and how much it costs!

When I got paralyzed at the age of 13 I had no idea that for the rest of my life I would have to pay to pee. People with spinal cord injuries can't pee without catheters (most of the time anyway) and catheters cost money. I am so fortunate to have insurance that covers the cost but so many people are not so lucky and they are stuck paying hundreds or even thousands of dollars a month just to empty their bladders.
Recently government in the province of Alberta, where I live, increased the coverage for catheters and even included hydrophilic catheters as part of their funding program. If you live in Alberta, not is the time to take advantage of this new funding!

I never considered the blessing of only having to pay for toilet paper when I pee. This is why it is so important to watch how people different from you live. You learn more gratitude, humility and compassion.
I really want to go back to just having to worry about whether there was toilet paper haha.
I appreciate your honesty and disclosure of the process you take to accomplish this vital function. I started using the Men's Liberty external catheter a year + ago. I also use men's disposable underwear and women's pads. What a bother ! But, I count my blessings and realize I am NOT the only one with this issue and realize how minor it reallly is, and how lucky I am to be still alive after prostate cancer, which was 'agressive'. Best wishes to you ! I like your attitude.
I've been a T10 paraplegic for 40 years. The first 2 years I self cathed just like you, but no matter how careful I was, I still was getting too many UTI's. So for the last 38 years I don't self cath, I transfer to the toilet and bend over and push the urine out and I hardly ever get a UTI anymore. The doctors all said not to do it this way because you can't completely empty your bladder. But it has worked for me. Doctors are not always right.
Similar techniques are used for 'neobladders', so you may be onto something.
Greg are you incomplete? How do you know when to pee? Do you ever leak? What is Hardly ever? 1 UTI per year? Keen to learn more!
I have been paraplegic a T3-T6 for 29 years. for a few ms thanks to Britney, she has been catheterized. Actually just like you. Both methods are ok. I've never had UTIs, maybe twice in my life in a wheelchair ... each of us is different, but I don't think that pouring so much fluid into yourself is good. Also, it can be technical. You have to do it with a lot of "feel"..i dont know... :(
You can push it out pretty much just by bending over? I’m a T5 para, I had indwelling for 6 months now suprapubic for almost 6 months. UTI almost the whole time. I learned what what and where my bladder exactly is when it was full to the max. I guess bending was causing it to leak out. Haven’t figured out how to pee on command like you mentioned though. Can you explain more?
@@michaelstgeorge2185 No, I can't explain further ... I just bend over and push with what little stomach muscles I have left. My level of injury is lower than yours and that makes a difference.
Howdy from the Phoenix,AZ oven! I’m an L1 male para, 40 years post injury. I’ve self cathed the whole time. Early on I paid out of pocket for my straight catheters and I used a new cath monthly, running alcohol through them and religiously washing with hand sanitizer before and after. As long as I was in a familiar place my UTIs were only once a year. I switched to a new cath weekly with no reduction in UTIs. I finally got insurance to pay for my caths and switched to a new cath each morning again no change in UTI frequency. What did make a difference is if I used a public restroom I would get UTIs much more frequently. COVID cut my use of public restrooms and I haven’t had a UTI in 3 years! Our bodies are all different and I wouldn’t suggest anyone follow my routine but this has worked for me. Stay healthy!
Wow, the number seems crazy! Maybe my bladder holds more? I do cath before leaving somewhere like you, so that can add to my count in a given day. I cath 6-7 times a day (I use the coloplast speedicath flex coude pro) and I always cath sitting on the toilet rather than in my chair.
The speedicath flex pro line is nice - hydrophilic, no need to ever touch the actual cath, comes in a convenient little pouch. I would think it would be flexible enough to use in bed (in the packaging it's bent into a figure-8) but I've not tried that one.
I'm in the US, and on disability so medicare covers 200 caths a month -- I couldn't cover the cost otherwise. They drop ship me 600 every 3 months.
Thank you so much for continuing to be so open and transparent! It's important for those of us who are in a similar situation and for those who are just getting an education!
I think I do pee way more than most. I used to only pee around 8 times but I drink more now and it's hard to stop drinking what my body has gotten used to lol!
@@EmpoweredPara and I get told to drink more water every time I go to the urologist lol
"Thanks for watching me pee 11 times." I realize we are in very rare air to hear a quote like that. 😅 Love the honest videos helping people see your journey!
haha I my channel is definitely TMI that no one asked for!
Thank you for your honesty in sharing your daily tasks with us, Brittany!! I have so much respect and admiration for you!! You're an amazing lady!! Love from Pennsylvania!! 🤟🫶🥰
Glad to know my over-sharing is valued, lol! Thanks for watching!
@@EmpoweredPara I'm not in a wheelchair myself, Brittany, but I'm very interested in people. I'm especially interested in how someone who lives a very different way from mine, like you, just navigates their daily life. Doing things that I mostly take for granted. These are things that people with full use of their bodies seldom, if ever, think about. But I think about them, often, because I always try to see things from someone else's point of view. That's why I value your honesty, because your videos help me to understand how ordinary life is like for you. Thank you so much for sharing your life with us. It's worth so much to people like me. 🤟🫶🥰
Eleven times daily. Have you run this by your Urologist?
I am a 21 year para. First 18 years I self cathed. I cathed from 4 to 6 times a day. In that time I had 1 UTI. But I had three strictures that required surgury. A fourth came up and I was told that clearing it would lead to total incontinence. The remedy was a suprapubic catheter.
It has its plus and minuses. On the plus side, no more self cathing especially while trying to sleep. On the minus sidde, limitations on clothing, no more shorts. Especially annoying in the heat (today a cool 99° heat index, yesterday was 108°). Changing from a leg bag to a Foley bag for sleep and back the next day. Cleaning the bags each time removed. Changing the dressing at the tube entry. Huge increase with UTIs. The UTIs went down once I got into a forced routine of daily changing the dressing. One of the UTIs developed into sepsis and I was hospitalized for 5 days. It also took me down a few pegs in overall health. Still clawing my way back up to my former level.
Cost? My insurance paid mostly for the catheters, but the charge was way more for the lubricant than from other sources. For example, I'd buy a 3 years supply of McKessons where the cost came under $1.00 US per tube. Now I buy all supplies outside of insurance, just cheaper than the copay.
To all others reading this, know that every para is different and all are trying to survive and have as normal a life as possible. Britt is sharing her experiences not for sympathy or your money but to educate both para and able bodied. My hat is off to you Britt, keep up your good work.
Thanks for leaving such detailed feedback about your own routine! It's so helpful to others!
Love you Brittney and thanks for posting. Best wishes to you from Minnesota:)!
Thank you for this video, it's impressive!
Here in Germany, the costs for catheters are covered by every health insurance!
Also the costs for all additional aids!
That's amazing!
That is one hell of a demanding scheduled of work on essential basics.
It’s been awhile since we’ve had a Pee video. Ahh, it’s only a head vein, not like my annoying dental implant that slurs my speech. But we all have things we don’t like about ourselves. Kudos on keeping track of the # of times you pee! And so glad you have bladder sensation. That is a mind-blowing amt of money just for a daily living function! But we know that you are staying healthy by drinking water and peeing so often, and that is very important to us! And also really happy you are still playing VOLT Hockey!! You’re the best!
It all seems soo inconvenient but you must get use to it and it becomes second nature. We take things for granted us non paralytic humans. Fascinating
Wow, that's a lot of peeing in a day. Over 5 bucks a catheter is super expensive too. I'm very thankful that I don't have to catheterization myself through the night. I do make sure to go as soon as I get up though.. Also very thankful to have ODSP coverage for them here in Ontario. I use the Rusch Coude Curved Tip catheters which are also really pricey at about 5 catheters per day.
Mine cost me with ins. $116. Per month, hydrophilic. Nevada USA.
One other thing, after I watched this video for the 4th time, I realized that your $56.50 per day for Catheters is almost as much as I allocate per day for ALL my expenses (other than vehicle lease & utilities). That is an insane amount of money for people with limited or no insurance to be out-of-pocket! Just for “the privilege of peeing”! Yes, I am still livid!! I am telling everyone I know how insane this is that the federal and provincial government don’t cover this cost in it’s entirety. None of my Able-Bodied friends had any inkling of this. I’m moving this up to the top of my To-Do list! This has to change! I’m serious Brittney!
I'm at $2 a catheter for my Cure brand hydrophilics. Every 4-6 hours during the day, but I'll go as long as I'm sleeping at night, so 6-8 hours usually. Which usually means ~170 catheters a month.
I've had a suprapubic catheter for about a year and a half, and it's been life changing.
I have CES and would bare down to make my bladder release and had zero uti's until after my fourth back surgery / 2nd fusion when I finally got home after rehab my bladder started leaking. So I started getting bladder botox every 6 months --- which my insurance does not cover so I have to pay $339.32 upfront on top of the urine testing and I am constantly battling uti's which I then have to pay $43.23 - Solvewellness or something its called basically a cranberry pill for a 30 day supply. I am on coumadin so regulare cranberry options are out. This is before I pay 180 medical monthly for cath's or but nitrile gloves or castile wipes or other wipes for all my CES needs. I feel I pay more a month to go to the bathroom then on actual food. They want me cathing 5 times a day so seeing you going so many times more now has me concerned since I do a major of my water drinking in the morning as well.
Wait..let me get my binoculars! Ok..go for it!! Lol
In Australia we have NDIS (National Disability Insurance Scheme) its government funding that allows ppl to get their medical supplies & therapies without paying out of pocket.
That is amazing. I wish we had that! Do you guys have universal health care too?
@@EmpoweredPara yes our healthcare covers all citizens & permanent residence
@britty52 wow I know where I want to retire lol
@@EmpoweredPara our main system is called Medicare, NDIS is a separate set of funding you apply for. You receive a plan with allocated funds for the different areas of your care needs that gets reassessed and renewed every 1-2 yrs.
I'd love to visit Canada one day it seems like a beautiful part of the world
I think that some people, including some friends of mine, don’t really understand what “no bladder control” means. They don’t realize that the urine doesn’t come out when you want it to until you put a catheter into one’s urethra.
I use the male speedie Cath, $152 for a box 30, so that works out at about $5.60 each, if my math is correct, but thankfully here in Australia we have the NDIS, national disability insurance scheme, that’s pays 100% of all my needs 😊
Really! wow. I'm moving in with you when I retire and need free catheters lol
Do you think lying down while you pee in bed makes it take longer? If you sat up would gravity help? Perhaps the bladder isn’t high up enough in the torso to make a difference. I was surprised how much you have to pay a day for catheters if you don’t have insurance! For some reason I was thinking Canada has free healthcare. That’s also a long time spent peeing!
Canada has free Healthcare but not for stuff like medical supplies. I bet it does take longer because I'm lying down. Never thought of that!
@@EmpoweredParaAgreed...It's much easier to sit up in bed by propping a few pillows behind your back. You'll be able to reach and see better too.
Do you use wipes before catheterizing? I tried BZK wipes and they were too harsh for me. Any suggestions on what to use before cathing to cut down on the UTIs?
I use Huggies Natural Care Unscented
You may have mentioned this in an earlier video, but how do you know when you need to pee? During the day, I’m sure you have a good idea of “fluid in, filter time, time to empty the bladder” based on experience. But you said that sometimes you pee up to three times in a night. Since the urge or necessity apparently wakes you from sleep, you must somehow be aware of the need?
I have bladder sensation, so I can feel when I have to pee! Which is awesome!
@@EmpoweredPara Thank you. I now recall you did mention that in an earlier video. Sorry to forget and make you repeat yourself! I was surprised at the amount of time you spent daily on this necessary task; I wasn’t surprised at the cost, but then I live in the US where deductibles, co-pays, unreasonable quantity control, and out-of-pockets ensure the insurance companies make their profits. That is if you are lucky enough to have health insurance at all.
If I may ask, when you feel your bladder sensation start, how long can you “hold it” before you have to void your bladder? My “hold it” time seems to be shrinking (probably due to age). As I don’t cath, it is more important these days to be aware of where the nearest clean bathroom is at all times.
On a good day I have about half an hour, but it's extremely uncomfortable to wait that long!
Random question. Something I struggle with is shaving my legs, I have Spina Bifida and my feet are paralyzed, I can’t stand for more than a few seconds without my braces so I sit in the shower. That makes it a pain to shave my legs. Do you have a video on how you do that? I can never get all of my hair 😂
14 times it's too much imo, but... i hardly drink any water, a 1.5L botte can last me almost two weeks, but i do drink beer and whisky "to compensate"; 56€ every day it's something that i belive most of the people here in Spain can't afford, idk how you do it... but i'm glad you can.
Ahhh, now I’m understanding better, I think. So the nighttime catheter you use isn’t a hydrophilic catheter so that is why you need lubricant and is part of the reason, in addition to its “size”, why it takes longer to pee. And the ones you use during the day are hydrophilic ones hence no lubricant. And I was a lil confused about “size” of a catheter. I was thinking of length but “size” means internal diameter. Sorry, this is all new to me; am I finally understanding this better?
I forget that this stuff isn't common knowledge, I need to do a better job of explaining these things! I have quite a few able bodied viewers.
@@EmpoweredPara I know that this channel is aimed at people with a SCI and for other disabilities, but I’d like to state that I think it offers just as much in a lot of the videos for able-bodied people. Sure, some videos don’t, but many do. I’ve learned a lot over the past 18 months. Just this afternoon in a social setting with a number of friends, I found an opportunity to talk about catheters. Our guests were shocked as they had no idea that many paraplegics use a catheter. I’m not sure they even knew what a catheter is. It may be an uncomfortable truth, but I want people to learn about this injustice. So I’ll keep working on this. And I know that you will keep educating all of us.
I have spina bifida and cath 5 or 6 times a day. 14 does sound like a lot, but I understand your need. Do you regularly see a Urologist and get scoped to check for damage?
no I haven't been assessed for damage but I don't have any symptoms of damage so I think I'm good:)
Thank you
Welcome!
Besides the catheters some have the cost of the wipes,gloves,lube and mirror if using...
Yeah, so many other costs! I'm working on a video about all the costs!
@@EmpoweredParaLook forward to that!
Im a c5/6 Quadriplegic it costs the Tax payer $70 a day for me to pee, we have NDIS here in Australia, i pee minimum 10 times a day and hold 380 ml of pee each time..... I drink lots of water to stay uti free. I pee in bed into a plastic bag at night. NDiS is the national disability insurance scheme payed by taxes i recieve $50,000 a year to spend on caths, physio, vitamins, wheelchairs whatever i need to keep me healthy and out of hospital. I usually only use under $10,000 per year as i feel guilty using a lot
I'm able bodied so I can't know the other types of expenses you might incur. But I'm responding because you should use what you need and not skimp on your self care! I totally understand not wanting to take advantage of the "system" but you are entitled to the coverage or it wouldn't be available. And it's not like the money will go back to the taxpayers!
@@patrickcooper6074 good point mate, thanks
Yeah agreed, use what you need! That's what the program is there for!
👀 I see you...😛 I'm the creepo you mentioned about! Lol lol J/K 🤣😂🤣😂
I don't self cath, never have. My arms are too short to do it. I had an indwelling cath for about 8 years. Now, I have a suprapubic cath. I take a cranberry supplement to help with UTIs.
Someday I think I'll try a suprapubic. So many friends have them and love them
I'm guessing that all of this would discourage coffee drinking.
Thank you for sharing! You’re awesome 💗🙏🏽😃
Thanks for watching!
our bathroom is not accessible to me so i have commode chair in my room i have gotten used to it
I get to deal with every 4-6 hour coatings.
Here in Ontario ADP from my understanding doesn’t pay for Catheters, it’s a crime as far as I see it.
I’m blessed with fantastic insurance for my supplies, but not everyone has this kind of coverage.
One day we hope everyone is covered.
Yeah, thank goodness for insurance!
Hi, I also drink a lot in the mornings tho I've found I need to add hydralytes to my water... drinking too much water can actually be harmful... :)
yeah it has actually made me mineral deficient! I should add electrolytes to my water more often.
Hello from Ohio- when people think they have it bad they should meet you luv. You're a strong woman. I'm going to assume that if you waited too long to do a pee step that your bladder will just release on its own? That had to have happened to you right?
Yep I'll pee my pants lol!
"Thanks for watching me pee 11 times". That was definitely not something I thought someone would ever say to me. haha I'm glad the govt added catheters to that program. In the US, our healthcare coverage for added items like this is just garbage.
i have a partial spinal cord injury...i use an 8 inch catheter...i pee at least a dozen times a day ...my insurance pays for a box of 30 per week...i have to reuse them...i have an extensive ritual of how i clean them...i didn't realize the cost and time i am using them til i saw your video...THANX...you really help me with all your videos...i live in pennsylvania, USA
I used to reuse catheters. So much time and energy, but we do what we gotta don't we! So thankful my insurance covers them all now:)
But you pee 3 times a night so why do you need to make yourself pee so much in the morning?
Also, how do you know when you need to pee?
I am a L1 incomplete paraplegic 11 years due to a back surgery that went wrong. Could you use the woman's pure Wick collection system with battery during the night to save on nighttime strait cats in bed? You have been a blessed to me. May God bless you and your family.
I can't use Pure Wick because my bladder doesn't empty on its own. My bladder will leak slightly but not empty fully and my bladder pressure will get too high if I don't cath
Have you ever overflowed the container?
No
@@EmpoweredPara I would have probably overflowed that container. Should I be concerned if I hardly feel any urge to pee until my bladder is very full?
Please what do you use to clean the area before inserting the catheter
Just wipe with a natural baby wipe!
I had to think about this. So the paediatric catheter, because they are thinner, means that can handle a smaller stream of urine (longer time to pee) but their big advantage is that they are much more flexible than a “standard” adult catheter?
yep
@@EmpoweredPara And, to think that just 17 months ago, I didn’t even know what a catheter was, or what it did, much less how much they cost, and how critical they are to life!
I feel weirdly pervy now
lol well at least you're honest!
brittney that was a good watch never new it took so long to pee & the cost (you pee alot in a day) think i only go 3 times.
how's Joe and the familey doing.?
How long was was Car Ride where you were going????
Damn you making me wanna pee now!! 😝
How often do you wear diapers or Pampers in a day?
How do you know when you finished peeing
pee stops coming out of the catheter
Apogee FG 14 Curved packaging. FG 10 must take forever.
yeah 10 french does take forever I'm realizing lol
Hello did you join rehab ever?
You know, the more often I watch these 3 Pee videos, the madder I get! It’s hard to imagine that in a “rich” country like Canada with Universal Healthcare, that the most basic human function of peeing is not covered for everyone! It’s insane! I’m mad! I know healthcare is administered by the provinces, but the federal government should make this a standard across the country. I gotta find people and groups to band together to pressure the Federal Government.
No provinces cover catheters to a great degree except Saskatchewan. It sucks for sure. Hate having to worry about how I'm going to pay to pee when I retire!
Yes, I worry about that for you, and others, as well. Seriously, I am concerned. I don’t need to currently use catheters myself, in order to worry about others.
Why don't you use a foley catheter? It would save a lot of money.
The catheters can't be sanitized and reused?
Yes some people wash catheters but it can increase infections for some people
You said towards the end of the video that you wouldn't have insurance forever. Here in the United States we have Medicaid which pays for you as long as you live.
Does it cover catheters?
@@EmpoweredPara I don't know for sure as I don't have to use them. But, I'm sure they would. You can check by googling medicaid.gov.
your nice and pretty i wish you all the best
It does seem a bit much. But if you gotta go, you gotta go.
Do you use betadine or baby wipes before you Cath?
Baby wipes:)
T6-7 complete (diagnosis, but not accurate in my opinion) for 24 years, also female. I cath 7-9 times each day, Coloplast 14F self cath. I used a mirror for the first few months, but found I did not need it at some point, touch plus memory I guess? Did not need lube after several months, all good.
In bed, I sit upright with pillows behind me, scooch forward tiniest bit to angle pelvis, cath into bottle. In my wheelchair, move myself forward, allow legs to jump for a bit, then set feet on chair footrest, cath into bottle. Both situations take 3-5 minutes, depending on amount of pee, and if body cooperates. I use a shower commode to shower, because I want to wash all of my body, lol. Since in the tub already, cath before getting out, easiest and fastest cath of the day! 1-2 minutes, including rinsing after (also best part of shower cath!).
Although supposedly Complete injury, it is more like an ice cream cone shape; feeling from injury point (T6-7) tapers, so I still have pressure awareness/feeling, and temperature variation sensitivity (yes, for sex too). So, I can feel when I need to pee, but it can happen more quickly than I can respond sometimes, so I wear a smaller Poise pad in panties during the day, and smaller "action size" Depends while sleeping (drink lots of water before and during sleep time). Usually wake to cath 3 times every sleep time, and then roll to other side of body for next couple of hours of sleep (6 hours total, usually require 7-8 hours to get actual 6 hours max sleep).
Very similar routines! Love the detailed info!
I sleep on a blue pad rather than wear a depends at night:)
Holy cow! On a day when I drink a lot I will cath 4 times max! Normal days I cath 2 times a day and I average about 600mL per cath.
I drink a lot lol.
@@EmpoweredPara i can tell!
@@EmpoweredPara how much exactly? Seems like I need a gallon minimum.
can you make a video about diapers and Pampers and how to use them on your RUclips channel?
There is a government programme that helps people for free, it's called socialised healthcare. I'm British and it costs me nothing. It seems absurd to me that it costs so much to buy something that enables you to do a basic human function.
Tax ?
@@honkyhonky1460 I don't work and therefore don't pay tax, but yes the NHS is paid through taxes. It still works out cheaper than any other healthcare system out there, and considerably cheaper than the US one.
I have Friend That has That also.
Im only cathing 4 times a day.
How do u deal with having a period?
I use tampons:)
Is a catheter necessary ? Can’t you just pee in the container?
I don't have bladder control.
Why your heart rate so fast when you do cic?
lol I sped up the video by 1000x so it looks like I'm breathing fast but I'm not:)
Why so many times a day? That just seems excessive.
Because I drink a lot and have a small bladder!
Wasn't sure if you can feel when you need to pee...?
Yep I can!
The best part is ""YOU ARE VERY POSITIVE"" about your condition, and how you make your life work and again POSITIVE. YOUR BEUTIFUL . p.s. YOUR VEIN IS MEANING LESS.
Why dont u sit up with pillows against the head-rest, i would be alot easier for you, no mirror!
Rock from side to side n lean forward to empty completely.
Sterilising ur caths = reusing them xx
Harder for me to sit up than to watch the pee with a mirror.
@EmpoweredPara i pile mine up against the headboard or wall n sit up or slouch against the pillows if thats any help.
Try n get used to peeing by feel instead of using a mirror. It takes practice but it will come to you. Hope uv been feeling lots better?
Iv not caught up with ur videos for a while. Bn under the weather myself 🥲
Keep rockin girl, n love everything u post 💕
You are one tough person
Why do you have to pay to pee?
Did you watch the video lol?

Medical assistance in dying for paraplegics
Are you saying dying is a better alternative than peeing 14 times a day lol?
only $57? i havent tallied it up but if i had to pay out of pocket i'd be over $100. usa! usa! usa!
mostly cuz I retain but also have bladder spasms and void. I used a Foley for like a year but i started having weird problems with them that are too gross to get into lmao. god I hate piss.
nothing is too gross on this channel lol
@@EmpoweredPara well, if you insist! it was sediment, I had too much stuff in my pee. didn't know piss could have sediment! but apparently it can, and it was basically like bladder stones were growing onto the catheter itself like some kinda freakish cave feature, so when it got changed it was. I mean it was like pulling a stalactite out of my urethra. it was wild. not a fun time.

How do you know you have to pee? If you can feel the urge then why can’t you just use the potty? I’m just asking, please no offense 😁
I can feel when I have to pee, but I'm still paralyzed so don't have control of my bladder muscles to pee on my own. Everyone's bladder is closed by default and you need muscle control to relax your urethra to pee.
@@EmpoweredParaIMHO, this is a really good explanation! As an A-B, I’ve never really thought about how I pee. But you analyze things so well, and you are such a good teacher, that this really helps lots of us to understand better. And I thank you for this!
hame it would work.... being cathed for long can make a girl sick , here guys have it easier
I complain about my macular degeneration. my vertigo problem, my weak legs! All in all, which is worse than pee problem. Why cannot just die? .
😞
What about in dwelling caths?
What kind of questions do you have?
indwelling catheters increase uti's and are way more cumbersome and inconvenient
Yeah, the angles really aren't the best. I think to really get the gist of what you are doing, I will need to come over and watch. . . . . 😄. At least the output quantity is about the same each time.
I use diapers
Try a bottle
Your beautiful love your vain
It cost to pee... That's Liquid Gold 🤌 😊
And how much money are you. making????
Not enough lol!
@@EmpoweredPara that's too bad!!! Get a job then!!! A real one!!!
@mariamercer472 I have a job lol. I'm a teacher:)
@@EmpoweredPara really??? You should be ashamed of yourself!!
It costs me around ₹ 150 per day.
If we could all use a free new catheter at our leisure it would cost the system a lot less vs treating UTI’s. Personally I feel I have to drink less post accident because of cost.🫤
Yeah exactly, prevention is the best medicine but good luck convincing the government of that!
