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, you might not be able to see it but I sure as heck will know that I've got several (I won't boast and say exactly how many) inches of rubber shoved up my dooddah!

hi pikey of all the things whatever would you want to do
that as it would not help the kidney stone situation. How
stupid.I know what you mean as the few times I was in the
hospital they saw fit as I was not to be out of bed, to
'insert a catheter and you are darned right you would feel'
those inches of rubber stuck into your dooddah. no fun at
all and I insisted they remove the thing so they did so
then I had all that fun wi
th the bedpans and trying
to function normally while flat on my back. some fun, not!!!

There are various methods of treating kidney stones. One of the commonest is to blast them into little bits with ultrasound so that they can be passed with the urine. A catheter is often used so that those sharp little bits of sand can pass easily and won't hurt you or get stuck on the way or clog up the works.
Just lie back and think of England. You usually get a mildly anaesthetic gel and are asked to cough at an appropriate moment.

Hmmm, me thinks you will most definitely feel that! There is nothing discreet about having a catheter up Mr Wobbly at all!

Since Facebook is about making money in order to allow the members to be their for free, am sure that the filters used certainly will catch all unmentionables.
Ouch the rubber thingy sounds painful.
