Anyone need Marlen Medium Catheters?

Post by mickatl »

I use the Mentor 30FR catheter to empty my pouch. My medical supply company substituted Marlen catheters for the last several months. I cannot use these but hate to throw them out. They are all brand new sealed in their original packaging. I have approximately 30 of them.

If anyone can use these catheters, please feel free to contact me via email and I will be happy to send them along.

I also sent an email. Marlens are what I use.

Did your supplier stop carrying Mentors?
Have you tried www.continentostomystore.com?

They tried to say that my insurance wouldn't pay for them. I supposedly got that resolved today. I have quite a few (29) that I don't want/need. If you want em, let me know. I'd prefer not to have to pay for shipping. Otherwise, they are free.

I received 3 requests. I am happy to send these to you. Please email me your address and I will put them in the mail. I included the sizes of the catheters in the post.

Please let me know via email if you have insurance. I think one person has said they don't. I know these aren't cheap. So if you have to pay out of pocket for them, please let me know. I'd prefer to help someone who is being gouged by the Medical Supply Companies.
