27years Old Model Unable To Urinate For More Than 2-years. by Bharekta: 8:40pm On Mar 15, 2018 |
https://bluebloodz./2018/03/15/photos-meet-the-ex-welsh-model-who-has-been-unable-to-urinate-for-more-than-2-years/ 27-year-old Leanne Ward , from Aberdare, South Wales has revealed how a bizarre condition has left her unable to urinate for more than two years The former Miss Cornwall is battling Fowler’s syndrome. Ever since then, it was reported that Miss Ward has been unable to go the toilet. Instead, she has been fitted with a catheter to help her pass urine out. Speaking about her ordeal, the former Miss Cornwall said: ‘All this has had a huge impact on my life. I just want to be able to use the loo.’ On the time she discovered the cause of her problem, she said: ‘I felt so relieved to have a reason for everything. ‘It was good to have answers. It was amazing. It wasn’t nice to have Fowler’s syndrome , but to have a direction as to where to go next was good.’ In January 2016, she had Botox, a cosmetic procedure to help her reduce wrinkles at the University Hospital of Wales in Cardiff. Instead of being injected with the toxin in her face, she received it in her urethral sphincters, the two muscles controlling the exit of urine. The procedure made her urethral sphincter relaxed, allowing her to pass water naturally. Speaking about the procedure, she said: ‘It was brilliant. For three months – the best three months I’ve had since 2015 – I could wee. It was supposed to last for nine months but, even though it only lasted for three, it was really liberating.’ Although, the former Miss Cornwall has been warned that she must not undergo again because its effects were short-lasting. Miss Ward, who’s now fitted with a suprapubic catheter through her a dominance wall that subjects her to daily pain, caused by the tube, which she has Nicknamed ‘Percy’ is sad that she can’t have the cosmetic procedure again. She said: ‘It was so disappointing to learn I wasn’t having any more. You have to laugh about it. Percy is the bane of my life, I HATE him, he is my worst enemy.’ Miss Ward continued: ‘It also really hurt whether my bladder is full or empty. It’s terrible. I take morphine for the pain and long for the day I can use the toilet normally.’People don’t know that Fowler’s Syndrome is a thing. But it is – and it’s serious. It’s so rare that often when I’ve visited the doctor’s or the hospital, people haven’t heard of it. But it’s an extremely difficult thing to live with.’ The former model also suffers regularly with kidney and bladder infections and is prone to urinary tract infections. She’s expected to have to have a Mitrofanoff procedure at the Royal Gwent Hospital, Newport , this summer.
