    Thank you Rhonda G, Donna and Jill!!

    I just wanted to take a sec and thank you for your replys and help with my questions about self cathing and stuff. I have figured out now what works well and the idea to leave the syringe attached to the end of the catheter to remove the cath is working great! No more problems with the meds backing up into the cath. Also, the bleeding was due to the cath being too big for me and once we switched to a smaller size that has not happened anymore. Anyway, this can be a real personal thing for a lot of people and I appreciate your openness.

    Thanks! grouphug
