I had cystocele operation in October. I have had many complications, however to answer your questions about the cathedar. I had a subpubic. Since I was urinating fine before I left the hospital I didn't have to go home with it. I wish I had. I ended up in ER, getting a new catheder the night I went home. I had it for 4 days and was thankful for it. It goes by fast. I had NO pain associated with the surgery and had a hysterectomy at the same time. I urge you to check into ALL complications of this surgery. I am 16 weeks out and headed back for a 3rd surgery since the vaginal incision will not heal.
