It was one of those hospital patient operated pain med delivery tubes. Except in this case with each push of the dispensing button adrenaline was injected into the guy's p-nis and therefore bloodstream. That would make anyone run.

No way, Jose, I recall pumping my poop out on the middle of Fifth Avenue during the 1992 NYC Marathon...it was quasi orgasmic...

Luckily, I have been able to purchase my catheter supplies over the internet at http://www.180medical.com . For anyone in the same situation as me, I would check out their website.
