[QUAD-L] thanks John

[William Willis]

Thanks John. I forgot to say it is an intermittent cath, so when I insert it 
my bladder is usually full. That is why I usually have a stream instead of a 
trickle.

With an indwelling cath I don't think you go by stream, trickle, or drip. 
Is
your output normal? It should be draining your bladder as the urine drains
from your kidneys. this doesn't normally happen in streams. It, however, 
can
happen. I would pay attention to amount of output and color as well as 
oder.
Ideally, make a list of questions and ask your urologist. I haven't used a 
cath in
a while and I'm going from memory.

Good luck William
