Thanks to all who answered me regarding the pain at the end of a draining bag.I have discovered this happens when I try to drain when there is only a drip coming out. At the moment I use 5 bags daily but hope to go on to the nightly bag exchanges.
The other problem i am having is trying to balance my diabetes as there is glucose in the bags.Did anyone else discover that they had to increase their insulin by quite a bit to keep low levels of sugar. Any suggestions???
I am looking for an iv pole like the kind in hospital to hold the exchange bag.Does anyone know where i could buy one in the UK.(Plenty for sale in the USA on the inter net but nothing in the UK.
All suggestions welcome!!!!!
