Thanks Lori,
Prayers for you and your procedure. I was able to get in with urologist next Wednesday.

I remember now then it was one cup of sterile water to 2 tablespoons of white vinegar that we would make up before hand and then pour them into individual little cups that the home health agency provided to bring the sterile water or saline. When I just went through is a total nightmare. I have now lost my urethra thanks to what that nurse did to me at the end of January 2016. I had urodynamics done yesterday and I am going to have to have a bladder neck closure and a suprapubic catheter. I was fine and dandy when I first moved here but it only takes one insect to damage so much grain (as Elton John stated in his song/tribute to John Lennon called "Empty Garden" or also known as "Hey Hey Johnny").

Do you happen to know ratio of vinegar to sterile water? I can google it too.

Sterile Conditions, sterile water, a teaspoon of white vinegar. Deep Breaths help relax the control muscle and 2% zilocaine is recommended when pain is involved.
