Hi All,
I'm home with my catheter and not feeling too bad. I was waiting for a call from my urologist before I posted because the last time I saw him I was out of it and have no idea if he spoke to me, but I was told that everything was OK, so I presume that means no cancer. And now that the anesthesia has worn off enough for my brain to function I'm thinking, the urine in my bag isn't bloody, so he couldn't have done any biopsies, ergo, he must not have seen anything to biopsy.
As far as the stricture goes, the only thing I know is the plan is to follow up in three months. Doesn't sound like much of a plan to me, unless he thinks he did something that will keep the stricture open better than any past procedures. Well I expect he'll call me.
So you all want a little laugh? My post op instructions said I could resume things tomorrow. There was a check mark in the following boxes: Shower/Bath, Drive, Return to Work, Walk, Stairs, Sex. Well, I've got news for you --- if I waited until tomorrow to use stairs, it wouldn't be a matter of having to sleep downstairs: I'd still be standing outside my house! Sex?!? Can you do that with a catheter in ????!? I think I have a headache and it's well below my neck.;D
