That’s great news that after this much time it’s going well with no issues. The success rates do appear to be quite high.
I am almost 40 days wearing my suprapubic catheter with the 1st stage of my urethroplasty scheduled for the first week of January. (Doctor requires “urethral rest” for 3 months so the stricture can fully form- if it’s going to- before surgery).
Not much fun but hasn’t been terrible either. You sort of get somewhat use to it even though at times it’s uncomfortable. I’m able to drive and still run errands and go out to eat. Thankfully, 80% of my work is from home.
