Re: Don't Listen to the Nurses without checking with the Dr's



No, l did not need a bm. I had not eaten since 12 pm the night before. I
was dopey from the anesthesia and felt pressure from the balloon on the
catheter. I guess they have bed pans for lying down, but I did not need to
use one after all.

Got it. But you evidently DID need to have one. What did the good
doctor want you to do? Hold it in? Move your bowels lying down? Is
that even possible?

I was not allowed to have anything after the previous evening.
I was allowed clear liquid up until about four hours before the PVP.

strong most of the time, except when I have an occassional urge to without
anything in my bladder.
