I had the same problem. I would spray all over during a BM. I did ok
post-cath removal. I'm about 2 1/2 months post-op now, and still drip a
little and the occasional "spurt" that follows strong urges every couple of
days or when bending over a certain way, etc. It's been getting better
slowly. It looks like I'll fall in the standard category of being mostly
continent by 3 months or so. I would only use two pads/day - one day - one
night, except I run regularly and I get them wet from sweating.

I'm not happy about having to wear briefs. I had worn boxers since high
school until after the RRP. I'm using women's "Always" pads inside briefs,
and now that it's getting warm outside I'm getting warmer inside - not too
comfy. Otherwise I don't have to do anything special except make sure I'm
"adjusted" on the pad.

You're right, you'll handle it, however it works out.
