Foley Catheter

Hi guys, this afternoon they put in the Foley catheter.  The single ones just we not enough right now, so, I am wearing this weird apparatus, and hoping that this will help give my bladder a rest.  Has anyone else had these, and if so, for how long, and did it help.???  Thanks,

Candy

I hope so too girls, somehow, it just make one feel very feminine and sexy.......... especially the night bag..... that is the one we have in the hospitals after surgery.  The day time one I can hide with my yoga pants... and just have to remember to emply it.... or ir is like you have a 2 lbs. weight on one ankle, and it throws of your gait.    LOL ..... oh, what we have to do, another "reinvention" ........((hugs)) to you both ...

Same here, only during surgeries...  Hopefully this will be of short duration!

I have but only while in hospital for procedure :(
But, sure hope your bladder gets a rest too and you can have it removed in good order. Hope too it's not terribly uncomfortable for you.
((((Hugs))))))
