Bri, looks like there is no one else in your situation. Have you discussed your concerns with your medical staff. I have probably mentioned this before, is it an option for urology to fit a catheter before the nose op, as insurance against retention, although I understand your reluctance to have it messed around with.There is also the option that they could fit a suprapubic catheter after the nose op if they can't get through the urethra ,but that would also need to be a urologist. My first SPC was an emergency intervention but I was already in the urology recovery room. I don't suppose putting a hole in a goodish bladder is an option you would like.
Hope you find a suitable resolution.
I see J tomorrow, I will update after I have seen him.
Thanks Chris
