Hello everybody, my user name is Blade3 I am a football fan. Have a few hobbies like Ancestry, History and painting.
I'm having trouble with my waterworks, at the present time have a catheter fitted. It was costing me between £30 and £40 per week in pads and pants. Not sure that catheters are the right way for me. I seem to have a blockage stopping my bladder working properly, am currantly waiting for my scan results.
I agree that the government are not taking the cost of being disabled. I have MS was dx way back in 75, I have DLA and Mobility at high rate. The cost of petrol alone is extortionate as well as our weekly shop and energy cost is frightening.I need a new electric scooter but obviously can't afford one. Sorry for the long message, looking forward to messaging and recieving messsages. Thankyou

Welcome to the community @blade3
Thank you for joining the community! It's great to have you on board.
Have you spoken to your doctor about the concerns you have over your catheter?
As woodbine has said, the cost of living crisis is certainly something that's on most people's minds at the moment, especially as we move towards winter.
We have a category dedicated to discussions around the cost of living crisis, so I'd encourage you to check that out.0
