After a series of blood tests showing reducing kidney function, I went for an urgent nephrostomy on Friday. This was to recelive the pressure on a blocked kidney.

I now have a bag which we clip to my underwear. My Radical cystectomy is set for 18th January.

Anyone with a Nephrostomy bag or who has had one, do you have any tips how to support the bag & particularly how to shower with the bag?
