bladder problems

Anyone having problems with infections and/or bladder spasms? Surgery was June 8th.

Oh yes! The first couple of weeks were very uncomfortable when I peed. Now I am 4 1/2 wks and usually have no problem but occassionally I still have spasms.

I just found out yesterday I have a urinary infection..I had to pee constantly and have a lower back pain now since I got home....4 weeks ago. They gave me some antibiotics and sent me on my way. May be you should have a urine test,I wish i would have sooner. Good Luck.

Hi,

I ended up in the E.R. overnight one night due to a bladder infection that popped up out of nowhere. They gave me a med to help that horrid urgency-feeling go away, an antibiotic and suggestions for lots of water and cranberry juice (unsweetened or with Splenda - 27% cranberry juice) and a HysterSister recommended parsley as a home remedy. I wanted to stamp out that infection for good so I got cranberry capsules from a reputable vitamin company.

I know of a lot of ladies who have weird twinges and such when they go, but that is sometimes normal. Always best to get tested at the doc's office. They have a lot of indicators in the urine and blood tests they do that can help them diagnose pretty accurately.

Hope you're feeling okay!

Thanks for all the replies.Whew! Glad to know that I'm not the only one who is worried about their pee! Had 2nd urine test done on Thursday. My son has a appt with GP tomorrow. Hopefully he will have more info for me.

I went 2 rounds with antibiotics when I got home from the castle. Good luck!

Bladder has been feeling abit better today. I was tired as hell this weekend though. DH was very busy at work after going back, lots of late nights this past week, so I probably did too much. He gave me an earful for doing what I did. Now the kids are going to be out of school. Hurray!! What next?

shellmak,

Hmmm....can they go to summer school? Just kidding!

Just take it as easy as possible (hard when you have little ones). But try!
