Well it happened again, I had to call the afterhours services cause my catheter blocked, they send the nurse that changed my thing a couple of weeks ago and he was worried and ask me to speak with my doctor because it wasn't normal that it was blocking so many times. You'd think??
Well my nurse said that she had left him a couple of messages but this was about 1 week and a half ago! I will contact my occupational therapist so she can get involved in this matter. I will probably leave a message to the doctor and ask him what would be the next step. The nurse left me with some worrysome parting words, he said the bigest caliber of a catheter is 24 and after that the irrigations that my wife does, 1 in the morning and 1 at night, would probably have to be replaced by a constant irrigation, but this is only done in hospitals...meaning I would have to move to one?? I didn't ask that question...
