Re: Worried about new problems occuring after surgery!
My GYN says they remove the cath in the OR and then give a broad spectrum antibiotic. When I asked her about UTIs afterwards, she
claimed her cases have less than a 10% chance of one. Keeping my fingers crossed.

Re: Worried about new problems occuring after surgery!
A lot of this is going to depend totally on how your body reacts to things. It is not a certainty you will get one but some people do. Better to know what could possibly happen but don't scare yourself to death worrying. You have to just keep thinking of the positive things and when your brain starts worrying stop it. I would make sure I was busy when this happened and distract myself.
