that fcuking hurt!!

have just removed my first rochester wideband catheter and don't ever want to do it again. i wondered about going up a size, but i guess the larger the sheath, the more superglue its got in it. any ideas for making this a little less painful in future? it's all your fault g-man!

Use the "Janoos Technique"...... go for a shower when you need a wee.....whilst showering, have said wee, but clamp the end of the sheath ...... marvel at how much the Rochester will swell without bursting .....but keep the faith and keep going .....eventually the wee will cause a breakthru and the Rochester can be much more easily removed.

I hope you made sure to remove the ..... ahem "grass" from the bottom of the ..... ahem "tree" .... makes the whole business much less painful

PMSL Isn't it a bit late for all this coyness

Btw, doesn't sure the term 'catheter' suggests 'inserted' or similar and, lucky for you lads, that isn't required for a male pee system

I was given a way to remove these by Woz

1. get in shower after drinking a few (dutch courage)

2. crouch down and place heal on the end

3. stand up fast (it stretches for a bit) and then kabamm, you can then tickle your balls in your throat few days it all goes back to normal and you stop crying

hope that helps

i would imagine the pain of removing all the skin off of your Knob, is nothing compared to a swollen gonad

it didn't actually peel the skin off, but appears to have burst blood vessels. can anyone suggest an equally secure, but less adhesive brand? before i decide not to cut this hole in my suit for the valve and go and buy some nappies instead.
cheers all
