You cannot tell a man much

Heather Echola @GardenGerty (169479) • United States 13 Nov 18

You cannot make someone do what they should. Medical complications. ER again last night, but AT LEAST it was before we went to bed. Calling urologist today, again. Making some other calls perhaps. We were going to go back to...

I’ve had problems

Kevin @kevin1877uk (36987) 25 Feb 18

Not sure how to start time, I know I wrote a lot about having a catheter in and how it’s finally out, but I’ve had problems. Here’s me thinking everything would be back to normal but I’m so far out of being normal. It would be...

Kevin @kevin1877uk (36987) 19 Feb 18

T minus 9 hours and counting In just a little under 9 hours, I will be saying goodbye to my new friend. It’s been a love-hate relationship but hopefully, in just under 9 hours from now, it will be gone for good. 33 days ago...

Still no word from the hospital yet I was hoping that today I would hear from the hospital about taking out the Catheter, but no, nothing. I do understand with working in the hospital that they will be busy and I’m no longer an...

Not the best thing to go to bed with!

Kevin @kevin1877uk (36987) 21 Jan 18

Not the best thing to go to bed with! After two nights of next to no sleep, last night I did sleep really well, but tonight I don’t feel sleepy. I guess it’s because I can’t really get comfortable with having the catheter in. I...

Charlene Sally Collins @OreoBrownie (3755) • Commerce, Georgia 18 May 17

I'm in such pain that I can't walk to get in and out of the bathroom or to the bedside commode. Ashley got the order and came and put it in. I'm not bashful with Ashley. I hate to have it because it constantly feels like I...

marguicha @marguicha (230350) • Chile 7 Feb 17

Tomorrow I have an appointment with a doctor. It is not one of my many doctors, but a surgeon. My oncologist said that my lymphoma was in complete remission (5 years since chemotheraphy) so I had to take off the catheter. I...

I think not

p1kef1sh @p1kef1sh (45681) 13 Oct 11

I said the other day that I may have a kidney stone. On my Facebook account I am now starting to see "relevant" adverts relating to urinary issues. The latest informs me that I can insert a "discreet" catheter! Now come on folks,...
