If self cath turns out to be a good option what are the costs involved ?
A one time cath I would assume needs a prescription. Are they normally
covered ? (I know each health plan is different).
Also, I have tried the caths that are 'plain' that have to be lubricated,
but the Lofric which you just put water into the bag for 30 sec are
really nice.
