I wish I'd used the Foley catheter as I was 7 weeks with a bag and the bladder got lazy I think, hence a bit of incontinence. I did a 6 mile walk today with a half of bitter at the half way point with no leaks, so fingers crossed, it seems to be getting better. My timetable has moved on to self catheterization every 2 days now. It's not always easy but just needs patience and I find by twisting the catheter when it comes up against the stricture, it helps to ease it through
Good luck to you
