Hi,
I have been having instills for two months now. At first- the cathing did not hurt at all and I rarely had problems afterwards. But the last time I had a different nurse and he struggled to cath me. It hurt very much during and my urethra has felt tender since~ not horrendous or anything- just a bit sore. Can the urethra just heal itself when it is scratched ect- as this was 3 weeks ago and it is still tender... My question is- do you think that when I get my next instill Tuesday that it will just do more damage as its already sore? I am going to ask for my usual nurse, I'm really hoping she's in because as nice as this other nurse is- he has had problems cathing me twice- ouch!! I am also going to ask for a smaller cath as mine is a size 12f and I think this is bigger than alot of people's I have seen on these boards. I just don't want any long term damage to my urethra. Just as my frequency was clearing up- now this...
Thanks
