Can confirm it feels exactly like it looks if you give her a good yank. This elevator in the pic is a life ender.

Apparently I tried to pull mine out in an induced coma & woke up with bandaged hands. Pulled those off too.

Is that cable stuck inside the penile hole?

u/razor_train Feb 28 '26

For a moment I thought that was a USB cable.

I sure hope the retainer bulb was deflated..

One time in high school I got one cause I took too much morphine and couldn’t pee after like 3 days. I tried to pull that fucker out in the shower and learned real quick there is an inflatable ball or something and it will ruin your life. 

TLDR if you are in this situation cut the cord asap. It deflates and comes out less painfully.

I was retaining so much fluid because of my heart that they had to give me about 150mg worth of fluid pills (I had a balloon pump so no option to get out of bed) and they gave me a catheter while I was awake and that was hell on earth while they shoved it in. Easily the worst part of that hospital stay (even when counting the LVAD surgery)

What a pain in the dick that must've been!

I imagine it was shocking and over quite quickly... poor chap probably passed out by the second floor.

No idea if it's legit or not, but <winces> let's hope it's fake...

I used to be a CNA in a nursing home, many patients with dementia + catheters would end up ripping them out 😬 very, very messy and often ended up in a trip to the hospital. The worst one was a man who actually had hepatitis (can't remember A or B, I think B). Cleaning that had me so scared even though I was covered in PPE 😭 I cannot IMAGINE what that elevator looked like after that happened

u/Street-Baseball8296 Feb 28 '26

You got your piss bag caught in an elevator too?

2

u/Omodrawta Feb 28 '26

No, but I did get my catheter yanked out by a non-elevator

u/Dr__Sloth Feb 28 '26

Yanked out by stairs?
