I was reading my pre surgery packet and it says till wake up with a catheter in. So I make a not so brilliant move and YouTube catheter ..... HUGE MISTAKE!!!!! I thought I was going to pass out and I still feel sick. I have cleaned many deer, ducks, and other critters without getting squiemish, but this about did me in. When I go into my pre-op appointment I am going to beg my surgeon to have it put in after I am out and removed right before I wake up.
I have watched the RNY surgery multiple times on youtube but I may never be able to go back to that site again.
