Well, forgiven, can you be a little more help. Clearly you may have indentified the problem with bladder spasms but a bit more info would help us all along. Can you tell us; -

1. I take it this is an indwelling catheter, but is is passed through your urethra or is it supra-pubic

2. How long have you have a catheter; is it a new treatment for you of have you had one a long time?

3. What is you injury level?

4. Have you been checked for a urinary tract infection?
