Cystoscopy;
I have had to undergo at least 8 cystoccopys and 4 urine voiding tests as a result of a prostatectomy done almost 10 years ago.
The most recent a few months ago. I had signed in and was waiting and a nurse very softly called a name. Excuse me I could not hear what name you called I said.
Are you Deltin she said? Yes I’ am Mister Deltin. Would you come with Me Please she said with a smile. We walked down the hall and came to the exam room. She pointed to a chair next to her computer station and I sat and she started filling in information. We chatted a bit while she did the necessary vitals.
She was a pleasant lady, pushing retirement age, and in her youth would have been very attractive. She stood up and said here is the room you can change in here take everything off and put this on, handing me a Green gown. There is a toilet right there if you have to go. She had the smile again and I really felt comfortable with her. She slipped out and closed the door. I removed all my clothes and put on a pair of slipper socks. Then I started to put on the gown. This gown was different than the other thin threadbare with bits of string gowns that I had in the past. It had some slots and ties in odd places and I was turning it over trying to figure out where the top is. I opened the door a bit and asked if she would show me how this goes. So there I was nude and she took the gown gave it a shake and a turn and put it on me and had it tied in an instant. There that’s better isn’t it she said with her smile and I noticed her eyes were a very pretty color. She gave me a very light pat on the butt and said go to the big chair.
She helped me sit in the chair and she pulled up my gown a bit and put some drapes on my legs. She opened a kit put on some gloves and got some brown antiseptic and washed my penis and all the groin area. I keep my pubic hair cut short and I think she liked that. She added more drape and she explained that the Doctor will have to open my artificial sphincter so she could inject the lidocaine. The Doctor came in and squeezed the bulb in my scrotum and the valve opened. He pushed the lidocaine in and waited a minute and then started the scope into my urethra. I was watching the screen and the nurse was holding my hand and talking to me very quietly. It was a little uncomfortable and I have had worse. I could see the inside of my bladder as he guided the scope. He removed the scope watching the implanted valve close the urethra. The Doctor said everything looked good and that I was able to go to the next test and he left the room.
The nurse started cleaning things and removing the drapes and I wanted to get up and she said stay a minute or two in the chair and rest. Her beeper chimed and she went to the phone and talked a minute. She came over to me and said the room for your next exam is not ready. You will have to get dressed and go back to the waiting area. She helped me get up and I went through the door to the dressing room and I shut the door. I was struggling with the ties and I opened the door a bit and asked could she untie the gown.
She came right in undid the knot and the gown fell off. I had to pee so I sat down on the toilet and a drip or two came out.
She was over at the sink running water and I said I have to wash myself. She said step over here and I will fix you right up. I took a step or two next to the sink and she had a wash cloth dripping with suds and started to wash my genitals and groin. The warm soapy water felt so good and she was through but gentle. She told me to turn and bend over and she washed my anus. I was told to turn again and she rinsed the cloth and washed me with clean water twice. She grabbed a towel and rubbed everything dry. I had not been pampered like that ever. The entire time she was chatting and smiling. She was spoiling me and I was enjoying it.
She stayed in the room with me while I dressed and she walked me to the waiting room to wait for the next procedure.
That will be another posting
Deltin.
