My be a stupid question

I was curious if they will be putting a catheter in me at the time of surgery? Will I be awake for that if so? Diane W.

Hi Diane, yes you will get one mine was put in when i was a sleep. good luck to you.. Let me know how you are doing ..... hugs, Anna

NO question is a stupid question when it comes to any surgery!!!! but, I was wondering that also? Sondra

Yes they do,and your asleep when they insert it. And when they remove it it just feels uncomfortable thats it,piece of cake. Rosie

Thanks Rosie for the feed back. Diane W.

Thanks Anna, I will keep u posted. Diane W.

As everyone said, you will be asleep when they put it in. When you're in preop they'll help you put on those lovely white surgical stockings. Then, and this was my favorite thing because I have such lousy ankles, they put the booties on. Once you're back in your room they'll hook them up to a compression pump. It's an alternating thing, and it does make your legs and feet feel good.

and don't lose those expensive booties --- did you know they bill you $50 for them????????? SHeryl
