Incontinence Supplies

Well finally things have gotten much better in the incontinence department for me. it's taken over 3 months since surgery to get this far (still dribbling here and there but waaay better almost overnight (OK the last few weeks. ha!). I'm hoping that I won't be needing these supplies any longer.

I have Conveen Optima external condoms brand new in sealed containers :

5) #25 STD

1) #28 STD

5 #21 Sport (short)

6 #25 Sport

5 #30 Sport

1 #35 Sport

1 #30 Long (Coloplast)

a new Conveen 500ml leg bag (out of the package but unused)

there are also a few other leg bags, also out of the package but unused, from different manufactures. i bought them to see which was the best fitment for me as i wanted a thigh bag that could be worn with shorts and not too conspicuous thus the reason for the open package. 9oz to 600ml (no large overnight bags)

As a small token for the help I've been offered on this site, I am offering these (free) to anyone needing them. i will pay the postage as well (USPS). i only ask that you Please, take only the ones you will actually use, leave the rest for others.

Leg bag hint: If you are using anything but the Conveen leg bags (they have buttons on the strap to keep the bag from bunching up), I have found that if you save the little plastic "clips" (buttons) used on virtually all other inexpensive bags, you can use them on the strap (rubber or elastic), when placed about 4 holes apart, if you use them to "catch" the slots of the bag, that once you tighten the strap, there is enough pull on the slots to keep the bag from bunching up. Much more comfortable for me anyway.
