My friend is male, 47 yrs old. He had an accident that caused nerve damage from his waist down. He just had a ft of his colon taken out, it still does not work. His bladder is doing the same thing. His bladder can be full and he doesn't know it. The only way he can get any urine out is to sit on the toliet and strain to have a bowel movement after an enema and he starts urinating some. He never empties only gets enough out so can fill up again. He has seen Dr. he is unsure of solution. What are his options? I feel so helpless seeming him have such a hard time and in so much pain. Also, he had many prostate surgeries because at first they thought that was his problem. Thanks





Dan,
Thanks. I will be looking for any info from the Dr. Just to update. My friend had gotten so bad with backed up urin the Dr. has him temp cath himself so as not to damage his kidneys. Don't know who to send him to. Physicians are stumped. Hope someone can help him.
