    Is there anyone who is also using the texas catheter at home? My question is smy husband has been very agitated lately and have been pulling the catheter out which is causing a MESS to say the least. I have tried drawstring pajama pants but he still seems to manage to cause it to come apart. ANy suggestions on what I can do?

    My husband uses one some of the time, but he is early stages and actually uses it by choice. There is a wide variation in the condoms--are you using ones with some adhesive inside the condom part? Some have a wider band of adhesive than others.

    As a nurse I have seen some aweful things happen with a con-compliant wearer. I have seen gangrene when they are applied to tightly and some very bad skin issues. You might do better with man pads and one piece clothing to keep his hands away. Google Buck and Buck for some ideas.
