Need advice from fellow UK quads.

I use inco sheets for my bowel routine and they are supplied through my district nurses. They are now telling me that they are finding it hard to order them and supply me with them. Does anyone know if:

1) They can be ordered on perscription
2) Is there an alternative

I hope to hear from you soon as I'm getting desperate.

Hi,
They stopped supplying me these a long time ago (through district nurse) I don’t use them as often now but are still a must have.
I buy my own & the cheapest I’ve found so far are here:

Hope it helps,

Ask the continence care nurse in your community, they usually have a list of suppliers and you can get them privately. Between £20 and £30 for sixty I think it is. If they don't have a list try your local hospital or the rehab unit you were in, they should have a list of suppliers too.
