Q: I have had a mesh sling replaced with alloderm, still have a suprapubic as I cannot completely empty my bladder. Had surgery to lower the sling and can now urinate stronger but cannot empty my bladde

I have had a mesh sling replaced 9/2011 and was un-able to completely empty bladder without draining from my suprapubic catheter. On 11/2011 I had the bladder sling lowered, 1 week later I can urinate more forcefully (instead of a small stream) and more often, but I still cannot completely empty my bladder, I urinate 1-4oz at a time but then drain 9-16oz from the catheter. Will I eventually be able to completely empty my bladder so I can get rid of the suprapubic? Or do you think I could possibly have to have it lowered again??
