I was told previously by a doctor that excess vitamin C simply is expelled in the urine.  Taking excess vitamin C helped me control the odor of my urine about six months ago.  At the time it was so bad that I was starting to avoid going anywhere.  Now it is pretty much under control and I am only taking 1500 mg a day.

I didn't mean to say cranberry juice wasn't good for you. I was saying my choice is to avoid the high calories of most juices. There are vinegars that you can drink like wines. You won't get drunk but the pH is fabulously balanced. It is an aquired taste, but hey, worth a shot. Actual numbers on a high sediment sample I tested was 68 percent calcium and 22 percent dead white blood cells(puss). The rest was composed of bladder and kidney tissues that are common with an indwelling catheter that irritates the tissue it is in contact with.
If you have had a catheter indwelling for 30 years you may want a biopsy to test for cancerous cells. While your discussing these points with your urologist, ask about using anti-infectives. (mandelamine, etc.)
I've read studies that say vitamine C can help your body absorb calcium. I haven't read anything requarding SCI's and the use of vitamin C. I take about 2500 mgs a day. If anyone is aware of a down side to large doses of vitamin C, please let me know. 31 years and I haven't had a single cavity to  fill.

I recently bought some cranberry juice,  I guess that is not good either?
 
Along with grapefruit juice.  I usually don't drink juice, but I do drink some carbonated drinks, because I don't like water, what about you? I drink a lot of bit of Minute Maid lemonade and Crystal light , which is not carbonated, but I really like.
