Yes. Ended up having an urostomy procedure done. I still have some pain, but I
don't have the bouts with AD like I used to.
My recovery was pretty long and difficult, but all in all for me it was the
only option other than continuing on with dysreflexia and other problems.

My primary physician mentioned that this might be an alternative for me. Trying
to find something I can use to control spasms. They think my medication for
bladder spasms might be causing spikes in my blood pressure. I'm not sure
anymore. I have ceased taking the medication most of the time and
I asked the urologist about botox, he doesn't use it. I'd have to travel
to ABQ, long rough trip. Every bump in the road hurts. Also been having
trouble with AD just from sitting up for a couple of hours.

For some, botex injections, inside the bladder, can help with bladder
spasms. Not for everyone, it is best to check with your Uro to determine if
you are a candidate for this procedure. Its also successfully used to
prevent bladder spillage with older/seniors with bladder issues.

Any time the catheter moves it triggers dysreflexia, so I keep it taped
down. Draining the collection bag also triggers a very short episode of
dysreflexia, so I wonder if something is going on inside the bladder. I
started using the duette catheter, so far it hasn't made any difference.

I had some problems with pain and AD whenever I've had my suprapubic. I found
that a lot of the problems were occurring because the catheter was rubbing
against the back of the bladder. Have you tried tethering the catheter to your
belly so that it doesn't slide into the bladder too far? You mig

I've been having trouble with AD for the past 14 months after having a SP
cath put in. The first few days after the catheter is changed, AD occurs
every 10 minutes or so. Transferring in and out of my chair also sets it
off. When getting dressed, any contact to the groin area also sets it
off.
I had a very bad AD "episode" back in 1986 before anybody knew what it was and
what he signs are.
I was hospitalized for severe headache's, they ended up putting an elderly
woman who was almost complexly deaf in my room. Every person who came to
communicate with her had to SHOUT!
