okay i went and talked to my friend who is also a internist. i told him all the diagnosis and treatments i have had in two years. basically we just sat down and went over everything about my bladder problems. after much thought he thinks i have voiding problems and i don't empty the bladder everytime i go. this leads to urine sitting in the bladder and then infections.
i have had two infections confirmed since nov.
well i finished a round of septra ds a week ago and yesterday felt the old symptoms of burning when urinate. i did the home test and it was positive again.
i have really had it up to my eyeballs with this.
he suggested charting the infections and if i keep getting them frequently to go on the low dose anti's because of the voiding problems.
i am already on flowmax for this.
i just don't know if the anti didn't get rid of the infection or what. they ususally don't come on this fast.
oh and the black dots in my urine i had examined by a pathologist. he says that i need a cysto right away to rule out a protrusion in the bladder what ever that means. he thinks the dots are coming from something else.
i haven't talked to the internist yet about this, he seems to think its from urine thats been in the bladder too long.
well i went back on the voiding diary. the past two nights i have voided 700 cc at a time.
this is really wierd. i guess i do have a voiding problem. does anyone know what treatment you do for this. i am going to make an appt. with my uro today. i don't know when i'll get in though. the internist thinks i need to go back to her and start the pt right away.
i really need opinions about this. please help.
