Arthritis from an old pelvis fracture
Can you help with the above. Pelvis fractured in 1966 and is not healed properly. I now have arthritis there and am getting unable to work due to the pain in my back, pelvis and back. Any ideas?

Yes, I have had a cystoscope but I will see my doctor about a bladder washout.
Many thanks

Re: Blocked Catheters
Hi Julie
Many thanks for your reply. It was not obvious to me that diet had anything to do with mucus and blocked catheters. I have my SI since 1966 and have never been told this so in future I will watch my dairy intake.
Thanks again

Re: Blocked Catheters
Many thanks for your reply. I will get in touch with my doctor and try bladder washouts. I do drink as much as possible. I change my catheter from anytime from 2 days to a fortnight as it blocks. I have been unable to last any longer but hope washouts will improve things.

Blocked Catheters
I had a RTA in 1966 and have been treated in General Hospitals. I have had an Indwelling catheter since approx 1979. Over the past year it has repeatedly blocked for no reason sometimes 2 or 3 times in a week. I have been in hospital and there are no obvious reasons for it blocking ( no stones etc.)...
