Bladder cancer

Mum is  90 with bladder cancer twice this week I've had to get district nurses out to sort the catheter bag out it's not  been filling up they flushed it  out and it seems  OK now tonight same thing I'm  so worried about it  as I don't want mum going in to hospital shes bed bound so fragile thru losing weight I'm upset but it could be dangerous for her ..

    I'm so sorry to hear that your Mum is having some ongoing problems with her catheter not draining properly. It is important that you get some advice on this as it seems to be problematic again tonight. 

    Do give NHS 111 a call as they will be best placed to help and arrange for a health professional to call out and see your Mum if necessary. 

    Let us know how you get on. 

    Best wishes,
