Oops didn't know I'd get more space! Ok had antibiotics in Hosp but for symptoms, all tests were ok. Could symptoms be due to mechanical irritation of urethra/ sphincter? So sad as her shoulder is great and proud neat mum is hating being wet. She's very impressed with gel pads though!
Yes, your Mom could be experiencing some incontinence because of irritation from the catheter while she was in the hospital for the surgery. I think that over time, the incontinence will get better. Some people react differently to having a catheter inserted into their bladder and incontinence afterwards is one of the "side effects".
