i have a question for the men out there and what they carrry there supplies in when they go out. i need to carry a catheter or two some lubricant and hand cleaner and i want something small and descrete. does anyone have any suggestions. i don't think i can start to carry a purse unless i'm going over to New Orleans i found something years ago that clips to my belt but is has worn out and i can't remember where i got it.

Well here in Calif you could go to San Francisco and get by with that purse..lol Try a camera case or possibly cell phone case. Between the two you should get one to suit you.
Good Luck

I bought a thing they call the "Leg Lugger" from Austin Medical Supply for about 25 bucks. It straps to your lower leg and has compartments for your supplies. I got used to it right away and at times I couldn't tell that I was waring it. Of course it would look a little funny if you wore it with short pants.

I know I'm female, but i carry a catheter in my jeans pocket. I'm as anti-girl as you can get.. HATE purses.

After my last surgery Sept.2008/ Hollister sent me a sample welcome package. Which included a camaera style bag (attaches to belt). Inside the bag is a mirror, scissors and various small compartments.

I keep a spare pouch in the car. That's it.

another thing i just thought of, is i went to play racquet ball with people, and put a colostomy bag, cut up in my coat pocket.. it was one of those HUGE coats for snow.

You could always call the people at hollister or coloplast and ask what they have...I also got a bag from Hollister which is too big to strap to your leg but very useful when travelling.
What about those money belts people use when travelling...they would just be big enough I think....have a look in the luggage dept and see what you can see....if in desperate need and you cannot find anything..tie a soft belt roundyour middle and attach a pouch to it, maybe someone you know who can sew well could make you one.

I have a Maxpedition Lunada Gear Slinger, it only has one strap that goes across the chest. I carry all my stuff in it, love it. You can check them out at www.maxpedition.com.
