Finally, the day I have been longing for is upon me.  I've noticed over the last couple of days I've got slightly more uncomfortable each day with a feeling almost like the urge to urinate.  Since I have the catheter that makes no sense yet its grown more irritating each day.

I'm scheduled to have a Cystogram then on to the urologist.   I sure hope everything goes as planned because I am psyched to have the catheter removed and will be disappointed if that doesn't happen.  I'll get the results of the pathology report tomorrow also.  Funny I've barely given the pathology report any thought although in the scheme of things its much more important.

Is the Cystogram needed to make sure my bladder is functioning properly?  Wish me luck.

Good luck my friend, and yes they do the procedure to make sure the sutures have healed.

Hello RTR,

Good luck tomorrow on both the path report and the catheter removal. Don't over do the celebrations.

Hope all goes well for you with your catheter removal, as doubtless it will. Then on to the next stage of healing and recovery.
