Hi Rob

Note I am not a catheter user. However some time back I asked for personal experiences from users and collated them. If you email me I can send you the document.

Note that caths come from different suppliers, in a range of diameters, and that there are two types of tip. So a lot of permutations there.

If the stinging is bothersome, ask the nurse if there is some anaesthetic gel you can use. When I went to a urologist for a different issue, he smeared some gel into the opening of the urethra (the meatus), and I had no stinging at all.

cheers

Andrew
