During breakfast I needed what I thought was to go to toilet and extreme pain and urine dripping from catheter
Dripping seemed to be overflow urine came from outside of catheter
Got everyone into a tizz. First thing was to check catheter for blockages which required manual flushing of the catheter back up through the bladder. Flush showed multiple blockages.
Next plan of action was to organize the urologist to visit today or tomorrow looking to validate strategy of putting a Stent into the kidneys to remove the blockages. If possible required a ct scan to confirm blockages in kidney also to check if kidney stones are involved.
Urologist is available and saw her and she agrees with strategy - now to organize.
Ct done within half an hour. Results so far -indicates blockage in kidney and no kidney stones. Procedure booked for 5pm today.
After operation - the Stent was inserted with no complications. Examination revealed right kidney was working ok so nothing to do with that.
