when I had my catherter removed I was told to drink plenty and come back in an hour or so as they wanted to make sure I could pass water, I hated having the damn thing in and I was pleased as punch that it had been taken out
.....unfortunately I couildnt pee, felt like I was going to blow up, I was getting in a desperate state, cold sweats , about the pass out, looked and felt like death I was in the urology department waiting room on my own, I laid accross some chairs trying to get some comfort, fortunatly someone walked in took one look at me and asked are your all right....no please get some help, a nurse came and nearly carried me into a room, it was panic stations, I was the last patient on a friday afternoon, the palce was deserted
I was ready to beg them... put it back in....they did relief was slow in coming, a doctor was summoned, an eye specialist ! , somewhat bemuse and confused as what to do, eventully an ambulance was called and I was packed of to A&E, I thought wait until I tell the Mrs, I convinced her not to come along this afternoon, anyway I was checked over and discharged within an hour and told to go back to the hospital in a weeks time to have it removed again, I did and it was sucessful , never did find out what the problem I was ,
but I do having a lasting memory of not being able to pee and about to pass out in desperation, Carols you have my sympathy,
I wish you well and hope the issue is resolved quickly....good luck
