my bladder and my plan

19 yrs post here.
condom cath since injury ..they had me doing one in/out a day to make sure bladder got fully drained at least once a day.
You are getting such a low volume with the in /out you dont need to do it.
you are putting yourself at risk of a uti by doing caths.
My physiatrist told me under 100 / 120 residual is acceptable.
I was getting uti's a lot so urologist had me quit doing in / outs presto no uti.
you can check once in a while as i do to be sure your not maintaining high pressures by doing an in/out right after your bladder empties to check your residuals.
also i walk with a walker and a physio suggested to me to stand when i get the urge to pee which is how men pee at toilet / urinal helping to drain bladder better due to gravity.

Sam-
I've read many different stories over the years and agree with Airohs, but with the caution that each of us is different so really your plan is very sensible. The test is in what happens for you so gradual weaning from catheterization will have the benefit of building your confidence in your own body while taking minimal risk. I expect you ill do fine without cathing, and the condom cath at night for good rest is probably a great idea. If you back off from that, then I find as long as I get one or 2 uninterrupted stretches of sleep that last at least 3 hours I am fully functional and feel good during the day. I do sleep a total of 8 hours, but with frequent interruptions to pee.

You should have urodynamics done to be on the safe side

omg I just urinated 350 ml. what does this mean? 275 ml was my previous best.

ok, next time I do 300 ml or more I will check it.
