After thinking about your question Cullen, a supra-pubic by-passes the URETHRA I'm pretty sure so that should make no difference. It is a small hole in your lower gut that goes directly into your bladder. Dan H.

Has anyone on the list had a superpubic after having a indwelling cath for a long period of time? Does the fact that my bladder is the size of a walnut make any difference. My urologist does not know the answer to this question, this doesn't surprise me, since he doesn't deal with many quads. Cullen
