Bladder Infection???

Ok, I've had a catheter in surgery before, and remember being a little uncomfortable peeing after it came out. But this time, they must have done a really good job with it, because I didn't feel it while it was in, when it was being taken out or even the first time I went when they took it out. Been fine for a whole week. Today is day 8 post op and I DO feel like I have a bladder infection...........could this be a delayed catheter issue? Anyone have this? I have a call into the doc, waiting for a phone call back, but just wondering..........

Thanks,
Christiine

I would call your dr to be safe . your bladder does take a while to adjust after surgery but always beter to be safe if your unsure. good luck and feel beter

i have been fighting a bladder infection ever since they took out my catheter in the hospital. Don't wait to call your doc, i have been on 4 different kinds of anti's over the last 3 weeks and nothing has worked, the infection has moved into my kidney's and it is very painfull now. Doc said that if i don't improve by thursday i will go back into the hospital. pls don't wait to call your doc. xoxoxo
