Hello!

My father asked me to share this trick with you (he would write you directly, but he doesn´t know English, so I translate what everything I read on the forum).

He also has had lots of pain and he found out by putting a warm bag on the genital area before and - if possible - during the passing of urine, pain reduces almost 50%.

It's a simple trick he found by accident. Has anyone else found anything similar?

I wish you a speedy recovery!

My father is a male, 65, nonsmoker. Hematuria 01/08 TURB: T1 G3 widespread bladder+prostatic urethra; 3-month BCG.
Clean until 02/11: small TURB with no biopsy; 06/11 tumour detected TURB 08/11: awaiting biopsy, prostatic adenoma removed. Biopsies show both were benign. (...)

AND...now you know that you need the pyridium after a TURBT. Even if the doctor doesn't prescribe it, you ask for it. Keep some on hand.

Hell. They gave me nitrofurantn ext 100 mg. so hopefully it will do the trick. I know one thing for sure, if there`s a round three a year from now i will be sure to have whoever hands me the script to make sure i get all that the doctor prescribes.

The pill that turns urine orange isn't an antibiotic. It is to help with pain in the urinary system.

I just didn't want you to think your doctor caused some infection by not giving an antibiotic.

The pyridium (phenazopyridine)elieves urinary tract pain, burning, irritation, and discomfort, as well as urgent and frequent urination caused by urinary tract infections, surgery, injury, or examination procedures. However, phenazopyridine is not an antibiotic; it does not cure infections.

It still sucks that they forgot to give you the one that helps for pain!

gnilaeh, If you are not feeling better, it might be a good idea to call your doctor and ask if they could call in the Prosed-DS that Dieseldoc has had success with...especially since we're now in the weekend.
