Last weekend I tried out something knew to me. Since I am confident with 20 Ch catheters (again) I went on to use a 20 Ch silicone cath with a 30 ml balloon. It was my first time with such a big balloon. I inserted the catheter on Friday morning (it was a holiday) and kept it until Sunday. I was surprised that it felt so comfortable. I didn't feel a "heavy" weight in the bladder. The feeling of the 30 ml balloon was less intense than of a small balloon. No spasms. I expected to have those as the tips may poke deeper in the bladder ceiling because of the big balloon. To avoid this I implemented a valve which I could close in order to let the bladder fill and have a more natural stress on the bladder wall than a continous stress spot caused by the catheter tip. However, I felt comfortable. The weather was warm and I wanted to go out with short pants and celebrate 1st May. I needed to wear an Aircast boot because I injured my foot. So the boot was on the left leg and the leg bag (it was a big one with a voluminous dripping chamber) was mounted thigh high under the right pant. When sitting the long hose and the lower end of the bag was clearly visible. I like this subtle revealing :-) To absorb muccus the penis was wrapped in absorbing cloth (which was left over from earlier catheter sets). During the night between Saturday and Sunday I woke up due to several erections. Dry silicon can painfully stick to the urethral wall and I needed to manipulate and "guide" the penis along the tube and lubricate with own muccus and precome. However, on Sunday morning I was really horny and suddenly unloaded myself. Strangely enough I didn't feel the urge to get rid of the catheter. I removed it four hours after jerk off. That was also new to me. Usually I want to get rid of the cath immediately after jerk off. All in all, the 30ml balloon was a surprisingly comfortable experience. There was one side effect: the digestive tract was somehow influenced and it paused for the 2 1/2 days.
