First night I had mine I must have got it tangled in the bed somehow and I woke up to a very wet bed. The night nurse came in and said "I'll put a new one in" and I politely said "no thanks, I'll wait for the doctor!" I didn't have any further problems and as far as the size of the tube, which I have no idea, I remember they gave me a syringe that I sucked up even VHC and shot it up my tube. I always flushed it with water as I needed those ounces as well.
