Re: [QUAD-L] UTI

[Tim Syfert]

I've had excellent success staying uti free with colloidal silver (a natural antibiotic). I drink about 1-2 oz. per day. This website has a good price for it. I've bought a couple of gallons from them before. I make my own now.

I just obtained another uti.

I believe the uti's are coming from not emptying my bladder all the way.

 

I use a condom catheter all the time but i straight cath every morning and night to completely empty my bladder.

Well, last friday and monday night my aide them nights had a broken finger and i did not get the bladder empty.

Now, Thursday/Friday, i have a uti.

 

Does anyone think this would cause it?

Or is it just circumstances?

 

Thanks,

Derrick C-5

Subject: [QUAD-L] Bladder Thumping.... some can while others can't

Bladder thumping is kinda an artform.  Some can while others can't.  Some have tighten muscles, while others don't.  Be prepared for that day when thumping won't help you empty or relieve your bladder and...... best wishes

Do any of you tap around your bladder to cause muscle contractions? I have done this since erehab. It causes the muscles to contract and the sphincter to release the urine in several flows. Because of it I can use an external catheter and avoid all the infections from indwelling catheters. It is just a gentle serious of taps on the tummy and then the bladder muscles contract and empty it.

By the way, the sediment is usually caused when you have a bladder that is not emptying. This allows bacteria to grow in the bladder, often causing stones to form which in turn cause more bacteria to grow.
I'm still a proponent of anti-infectives and large doses of vitamin C.

For those of you on anti biotics, try that new Dan-active from Dannon between doses and see if it really helps avoid the constipation and the runs that are so common with anti biotic use. I personnally just use acidophalous capsules between any anti biotics that I take
