Back from hospital...

Drum roll, maestro, please!!


The catheter is out! Gone. Banished. Taken out of my sight.
The relief? Instantaneous.

The hospital transport arrived about 8.15 and we got to UCLH just before 9.30. They saw me straight away in xray dept as a patient hadn't arrived, and the test was a doddle. Instead of inserting another tube, they used the existing catheter to fill my bladder with dyed water, then when I was uncomfortable, had to wee past the catheter.

Everything healed and catheter came out. Phew! Then once I'd emptied my bladder normally I was free to leave, reported back at reception for transport home.

Got home around 12.25. Happy me.

Re: Back from hospital...

I'm very pleased for you
A very uncomfortable device but now just a memory.
And how lucky to be seen so quick and home for lunch
Wish you a full recovery.

Re: Back from hospital...

Thank you ladies!

Racholollypop, thank you for my flowers!! Beautiful. Meg, how are you feeling now? Better, I hope.

Wish I'd asked to look at the catheter to see what b****r had been causing all this pain.

Going to take it easy still. Won't rush things. Just passed two neighbours (separate flats). Neither of them enquired after my absence. Tcchhhh!!!
