I had an appointment to have the Foley catheter removed this morning. I still have it in place. It's not necessarily a bad thing, just a disappointment and a delay.
Prior to removing one's catheter after a urinary surgery where the urethra was cut, the Dr's. need to confirm that the sutures have taken and that the urethra is not leaking. The x-ray with contrast showed a slight leak at the sutures.
So, I need to wait as along as another week before I can the catheter removed. Again, nothing serious - just a bit disappointing.
Hope you feel better Chris.
