Glad all went well and no complications....stay on your aspirin, and if they put you on plavix, do not bump your head!!

Your post cracked me up.
I actually experienced this just 10 days after my dad died. I had a "mild heart attack" and wound up with an angioplasty and stent. And a catheter. I wondered the same thing about peeing even though I'm a female. I hated that full bladder feeling and didn't want to "let go". Thankfully it was removed the following morning, but laying motionless for 6 hours right after the procedure was very hard for me as I don't generally sit still for long.
As far as Plavix...yep, look at me cross-eyed and I bruise.
But I'm thankful that advances have been made, I was out of the hospital in 4 days and am being one very good little girl. Feeling great too!
