Chronicle: Flaccid Bladder Treatment

My urologist in Toronto called to cancel my appointment tomorrow, but I was able to tell her secretary that I'm at my last straw here.

They're going to schedule me for a CT-urogram (never heard of it but checked Mayo). I'll have to drive up to Toronto and back just for that test and return a few weeks later for cystoscopy and uro-dynamics and we'll discuss surgery. Sounds like things could move along quite fast ... she's mentioned Urinary Diversion and the Mitrofanoff Augmentation before. I've spent a couple of years thinking about it. I told her in 2009 that I was waiting for research to come up with something better.

Pressure sores caused by leaking .. now a prolapsed bowel. Time has run out.

I never do this but I'm going to go with blind faith in whatever she suggests. Her secretary (her sister) also will try to get in touch with GI-guys (her words not mine) but that could take a year - even in Toronto!

Just keeping this record as so few of us have flaccid bladders. Will update as needed. Hoping that I can have the bladder surgery just before or right after Christmas.
