What does coffee, grapefruit juice and alcohol have in common? They’re all potential bladder irritants! These drinks can irritate your bladder- consider eating whole fruits instead of juiced versions &reduce your alcohol intake. Have you discovered any other #bladder irritants?

If you have an in-dwelling catheter remember to empty the drainage bag at least every eight hours or whenever the bag is full.

@AllAboutFU That will absolutely not be the case but there is so much stigma around talking about this. Putting information out there and talking about our own experiences will hopefully encourage others to do the same.
