Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
I see that medications are not helping you so you can do self catheterisation to help emptying the bladder. Then if the situation gets better and you improve control you can stop it.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
I find this answer helpful
