Hey Quadius,
My problem is the opposite. The new cath slides in real easy but getting the
old one out is the problem. Funny but I'm also seeing my urologist this
month, on the 30th. I too shall report my results.

elicited my response:
Dan,
Over the last six months I have had difficulty getting my catheter into my
super pubic, once I even had to go down to a 20 French for a few weeks.
Right now I am still using a 22 and it does require me to twirl it as well
as putting a little more force behind it than we used to have to use. I
will be talking with my urologist on the 29th, so perhaps I can get back
with you after that appointment. I have a cystoscopy scheduled to remove
some of the bladder stones I have developed over the last few years.

I've had a SP for 2 years now. I change the cath (18 French) every 3 weeks.
Lately, it is becoming more and more difficult to remove the old cath. I
always make sure the balloon is completely deflated and If it doesn't slide
out easily, like it used to, I have my aide give it a twirl. Well, last
night nothing worked and my aide was afraid to pull too hard so I said give
it to me and I yanked it out. It bled some but the new one coated with KY
Jelly slipped right in.
My question to you fellow SP users is what do you think is going on? Why is
it getting more and more difficult to remove the old cath and still so easy
to insert the new one?
