Help I need advice about a leaky catheter...please!

Icky subject, but I don't know how to handle this problem...
I'm going to the surgeon for a voiding trial tomorrow, hoping to lose this catheter.
But now I can feel myself voiding down my leg, into my croc...eewwww.
The catheter connection to the bags seems to be about 3" lower than when I came home on Monday. I have a feeling it's just about out of me, because it is quite uncomfortable when I sit down.
Should I wait 24 hrs until I see the doc, or should I call them...or should I just yank the darn thing out?
