I would say that the fibroids can press on the bladder causing overactivity & leakage. I would suggest you discuss this with your urogynaecologist or GP to see if she can take an anticholinergic. As I don’t know if you are retaining urine I can't advise further.

Good afternoon, I dont think having cloudy urine causes any risk if there are no infections present. I presume they have tested your urine .

Good afternoon. The problem with having a permenant catheter in situ on free drainage is the bladder never fills so it becomes very small. I agree that recycling the bladder by using a flip flow valve is a good idea. However like you say it doesnt stop the leaking as it takes a long time to increase...
