Re: Bladder Spasms
So glad I saw this post. I had my surgery on the 21st and having similar symptoms. No pain when I go, so I ruled out a UTI and it's not keeping me up at night. However, it feels like I'm constantly running to the bathroom. Not sure if I should call the dr. or not. I was just there Tues. for my week follow-up and I told him everything was fine because I hadn't really noticed it then.

Re: Bladder Spasms
I am having this type of problem also. I cannot feel the urge to go to the bathroom except when I get a sharp pain down low. When I go I will go for a little bit and then stop and it hurts alot. I then have to cough to get some more out. I am thinking that my bladder is not really emptying all the way. I will find out tomorrow when I go back to my staples out.

Re: Bladder Spasms
Sunnyhunny-let us know what the Dr says. I am slowly getting the ability to urinate on my own back, but self cath 3 times a day to relieve pressure from left over urine. Not a fun fix but it helps.

Re: Bladder Spasms
Hi Cornelious, my 1 yr anniversary is today. I had bladder spasms/pain for 4 mo. The dr put me on Ditropan, I didn't like the side effects so went off. The bladder issue was relentless I went to the dr several times,I don't know how many times I called the dr thinking I had a UTI...but if you think you have a UTI call your dr. Finally I requested a urogyno and did elctro accupuncture in the ankle for bladder pain and urgency for 12 wks and decided to see a pelvic floor phsical therapist...I started getting back to normal after dooing these treatments, I think healing time was a factor also...drink lots of water I didn't drink coffee for 5 mo that killed me. I'm also on 1/2 a climarin patch lowest dose which I will be going off of soon. It was a tough Journey in the beginning, it's been a yr and I'm feeling great...It was a dark time, but there is light at the end of the tunnel with hope and prayer I got through it...don't forget healing can take up to a yr. This surgery can play havoc on the bladder...Smooth recovery, hugs and prayers...
