Hey Folks! Just found this forum.
I'm really freaking out and I need to talk but don't want to alarm my family just yet. Here is what's going on...
In the last 6 months, I have had 3 recurrent UTI. Two of those times I was peeing blood. very noticeable. That had never happened before. I have never had a bladder infection or a UTI in my life but now I have three in the last 6 months. Antibiotics were working at first. The last infection took two courses of them! they were also very painful.
During this 6 month period my gallbladder stopped working and I had surgery to remove it. All the pre and post op tests show I do not have any kidney stones and all my blood work is normal. my gallbladder recovery is going well.
My grandmother died of BC. And no one can give me a reason as to why i keep getting these infections. I have a urologist appointment at the end of the month but I am trying to get it moved up with no luck so far.
Do you guys have any advice for me? what questions I should be asking my doctor?
Any help is appreciated.
