Sort of "whew" as the fentanyl/versed combo plus some "squeezing to help the edema" plus topical stuff called Emla, plus injected lidocaine, plus two very calm and competent urologists, meant a quick catheterization. He will have the catheter at least till tomorrow. No anatomical problems, just swelling and probably bladder spasms, plus it being so distended that the muscles can't work to push out any pee. I stayed in the room and helped. It was kind of interesting and I was glad they didn't force me to leave (as they warned me they were going to).
He's asleep. i'm going to try to take a little catnap.
he's not going to be happy about the catheter.
Over 300ccs of pee, y'all, a lot for a tiny person...
