My supra required a change and it was the weekend as usual I hate the phone because of a stammer but the pain was incredible because with my last two blockages I couldn't bypass so I had to phone
After a slightly bad start the nurse reassured me and the call was fine the district nurse was called
Twenty minutes later the nurse called saying it could take two hours to arrive, not the fault of the nurse of course but it was a long wait in pain
The nurse arrived and it was changed with only a slight problem of it sticking. the nurse said it was her fifth catheter that day so glad I wasn't the only one
I felt so guilty that because one day not drinking enough could case so much problem and pain but it was only my third emergency in almost three years since the flip-flo valve was installed
My grateful thanks to everyone involved and hope I don't bother you too soon again
"grateful thanks to everyone involved"
