I was provided with a Patient's Modesty Wrap and matching pants. Girls got pants and men got trousers. Bit like a big jacket that fastened in the front with a belt and velcro. Looked remarkably like a yucky green karate suit. Mine was so big that I looked exactly like dopey in Snow White. Never felt like such a divvy - after all it was obviously for a tall person and I am only 5 foot - I bet they had a fit of giggles when they saw me

I have a feeling my op will be done 'commando' as I read somewhere in all the bits of paper they gave me at Derby that I'll wake up with a catheter! But will let you know after the event

Kath did they say a catheter or a drain?
I had a drain coming out of the side of my abdomen but I don't understand why there would be a need for a catheter as they're not going anywhere near the waterworks.
could be one and the same thing i suppose

Iwent in with paper ones on and wasnt going in without any as the Surgeon who operated on me works as part of the colorectal team that I am a secretary for and my feeling was that although when you have seen one you have seen them all - he hadn't seen mine and I was keeping it that way! :8855:

I didn't have a catheter, but did have a drain - everyone has a drain. It is not a nice feeling when it come out as there is about 12inchs worth of it inside you.
I was told that it is there to make sure that the fluid you are drinking isn't going where it shouldn't. xx

I didn't have a drain or catheter. I did however go in with my own knickers and proud to say they stayed in place
My surgeon has all his patients up and walking the corridors wiyhin the first 24hours to prevent DVT and help with wind pain, which I'm glad to say I had neither
