It took me a while

I think it was a couple of weeks after but that was 2 years ago I’m not sure in the current climate, hope you get sorted soon 👍 xx

Thanks xx

How long after you saw the breathing team did you go in for your PEG? I’m hoping very soon xx

... do I just ask the continence clinic for that?

If you have an upcoming appointment at the clinic, I'm sure they'll have a chat with you about all options Janette, if you feel that a catheter would be most suitable for your setup/lifestyle, then push for that option, otherwise talk to your district nurse.

Good luck xx

Oh right wasn’t sure which one to ask for, hope all goes well with the peg I had mine done at Wythenshawe they’re lovely ♥️ X

It’s a normal one, tube between legs up to bladder and bag on leg. Going to Wythenshaw next Wednesday to breathing team to discuss PEG and suprapubic catheter but if the normal catheter works and isn’t too uncomfortable I’ll stick with that xx

I have a stoma for number 2s and getting a catheter on Monday so no nappies needed thankfully xx

What sort of catheter are you having Lynne? That’s the next step for me 👍 xx

I've noticed that size varies with different makes. Some can be a bit baggy and create leaks. Definitely a learning curve.

I have been wearing medium pull up nappies from day one. Something made me order large and the difference is astonishing. Comfort is a warm, well fitted nappy! 👶🔥🌝🌈xx
