I just hope he continues to be able to empty his bladder (if he really did empty it completely - he was terrified to have a cathedar) and we don't have to go to the ER at midnight tonight
I don't blame him for being afraid of a catheter. Male cauterization is no picnic. My husband just spent ten days catherized due to male problems. He had a terrible, uncomfortable time.
However, do keep us informed. We are concerned.
