as i understand it, when you are put under general anesthesia you are cathaterized....

Yup I did ~ it wasn't bothersome at all. It generally is removed early on but of course with my complications I had it in for about a week ~ ick. Oh well.

I did, they took it out the next morning. You won't even know it's there. The drain freaked me out when they pulled it out. I could feel it moving under my skin as they pulled it. It didn't hurt but just was a weird feeling. Cheryl

You know Kathi these things seem like annoyances, and I suppose they are BUT!!!! They are designed to make the surgery safer Especially the Lovenox. They catheter is no biggie they put it in while you are under so you don't even know it. It is a great way for them to check your kidney function too. I actually liked the not having to run to the bathroom every hour lol

I was so sick from the anesthesia that I was glad not to have to get up actually. That could be the reason. It came out the next day and after they put the motion sickness patch behind my ear I was fine. I wish they had done that prior to surgery cause I would have been up moving around that same day.

I do agree tho, I hate that waking up feeling, all dopey and drousy, I was put to sleep last year to have a small cyst taken out on my back it was great, I woke up and was wide awake and went shopping, I was in and out of the hospital in 45 mins. NO KIDDING !!! the longest part was the prep, getting the iv put in and stuff. it was teh best, they should use that twilight sleep all the time.
