That must really be tough. How long have you been cathing? Maybe you can find a trick to guide the catheter to the right place.
I don't have much sensation either. But I keep sticking until I get it, provided it doesnt compromise the sterility. A trick is to move towards the opening of the vagina, then I angle it towards the front. Mine is off to the right. Everyone is different.
I hope you can be successful. Having to carry around one of those bags is no fun. One of the worst parts about having a neurogenic bladder and the loss of sensation, is that I can't tell,when I have a UTI.

Hi jnet,
How long have you been cathing? I had on/off UTIs over the last year and was finally dx with bladder retention. Long story short I opted to have a sacral stimulator placed to help my bladder empty. In my case it work and I don't have to cath unless I feel it necessary. I don't know you situation but would it be worth speaking with a uro gyne?
