When you get back to the test, think of a flowing river. I'm going to Niagara falls before my next test.

Believe it or not, there have been a couple times I volunteered to have a doctor take it from me...yep, a catheter! THAT'S how bad it's been for me! Rather embarassing to say the least, but it was better than having my bladder explode!
Didn't really hurt...as long as I kept my muscles in that area relaxed (so, I didn't watch it go in or out). Was harder to stay relaxed as the doctor took it out but still not too bad. The really embarassing part one of the times was that he asked if a couple male assistants watched him do it to see how it's done. I did remember though that it was a little painful to pee for the first time afterwards (there was even a little blood but they said that was normal). UGH!!!I've heard of that before, too -- someone in for a drug test having to be catheterized in order to make the golden waters flow.
Just curious -- how was it when they put the catheter in? Painful, uncomfortable, weird? I've had one before (a Foley catheter) and it was in for several days but it was part of a major surgery and they put it in while I was under anesthesia. While the catheter was in, it wasn't uncomfortable at all. I was mostly unaware of it. Having it removed didn't hurt at all. Felt odd, but not painful.

I felt completely embarrassed today because I was taking a drug test and for 2 and a half hours, I couldn't pee. So, I have to tell my employer that I needed a new sheet because 'I couldn't urine'.
I was so angry about it.
So then, what's the difference between 'urination' and 'micturation' Mr. Pendant in Residence?He shouldn't give you the job if you can't differentiate the noun (urine) from the verb (to urinate).
In fact, it should be to micturate on this occassion.

EXACTLY the same situation for me; and on more than one occasion!!That happened to me in August. I had been drinking the night before, so I was dehydrated in the morning. I couldn't pee, and I asked if I could come back, and they said "oh no, you can't leave! Just drink some water." I did and waited for an hour. Then I couldn't stop when the cup got full!
