Guest guest Posted September 22, 2010 Report Share Posted September 22, 2010 How long did it take before you didnt have to use a mirror anymore? I seem to be needing it more today than yesterday when I first started. I am sitting on the toilet and that works fine except for the seeing part.  Subject: cathing To: tetheredspinalcord Date: Thursday, September 16, 2010, 6:12 PM just a follow up question to my original post. I more than likely have to learn to cath on Monday, still terrified but resigned. I was wondering how long it took to learn and if anyone ever ended up going to the ER to get cathed because they couldn't do it while learning. Also, do you usually get a schedule down? I know everyone is different but just wondering. Thanks for taking the time to answer me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 22, 2010 Report Share Posted September 22, 2010 Thanks a lot for the encouragement but geez, how in the heck do you figure out the right hole finally with no mirror. I know it is only the third day but it is frustrating! Subject: Re: cathing To: tetheredspinalcord Date: Wednesday, September 22, 2010, 1:32 PM  i think it took me about two weeks to finally go without the mirror. its a little tough to have so many things to keep track of, but it sounds like you are getting the hang of it! that is great news. chiara > > > Subject: cathing > To: tetheredspinalcord > Date: Thursday, September 16, 2010, 6:12 PM > > just a follow up question to my original post.
