Title: Catheter Woes !
Post by: nmac234 on December 24, 2010, 12:40:06 PM
Hello,
Having great fun with catheter's lol , Had tenckhoff fitted 3rd of dec,in hospital for four days as i could not pee so had urinary catheter put in (ouch).
Six days later went to the hospital to have the catheter flushed, straight away intense pain so flush stopped, had to come back next day to see the surgeon
Saw surgeon and was admitted as an emergency to have catheter removed , apparently it was wrapping itself around the bladder nerves!.
New op coming on the 29th this month to have a fistula made as a matter of urgency !.

The joys of Kidney failure lol !

Neil
