Catheters for Drysuits

[jonnythan]

I got a package of samples from Rochester Medical the other day. I don't like the Wide Bands.. the adhesive goes too far... er, *up* and it was extraordinarily painful to get off.

I liked the Ultra Flex quite a bit though... seemed to me like there is more than enough adhesive (2.5 inches or so?), and they didn't hurt nearly as much getting off.

BTW, shaving makes it *so* much less painful, even if it looks funny.

I tell ya...
For me, It' a way wierd feeling using these things. Every time I pee, I feel the top of the catheter expanding and wonder if it's gonna blow...
