    It was fine and it didn’t bother me any at all.
    I help the stuff in for over 3 hours and scrubed the bathroom when i finished.
    now I am drinkling lots of water and juice.

    if I get side effects would they cpme right away?

    Thank you for helping get through the day . The nurses that did it were very nice .

    Suz, the more you drink, the faster you’ll get that stuff out of your bladder. Remember, you need to get to bed and don’t want to be up all night with this annoyance. If you are experiencing a little burning, that should drop off tomorrow. If some joint aches, you can take a couple Tylenols.

    Aaaaaaw Right! Told ‘ja so! ;D I knew you could do it…you just needed a little pushing you over the ledge, so to speak. So congrats to you for your courage.

    I am tired but I think it is from worry all the time before today like you said.
    I am drinking lots but no second time to the bathroom yet. i wonder how much you must drink to make another bathroom trip. I am tired of all this water.

    Good Girl!! Did you feel all of us there in the room with you?

    It is unlikely that you would have any side effects from the first treatment anyway….I was exhausted the next day, but it was from my nerves since I was so worried about the whole thing. I “think” I had excess fatigue after the fifth and sixth…about 24 hours after the treatment.

    you goooo girl!!!! I am sooo happy and proud ;D Hopefully, you will not have any side effects. My main one was fatigue the next day. I have had a few other minor ones as the treatments have progressed…but certainly nothing major that I couldn’t handle. I wish you good luck and no side effects!!!
