Trip to A&E!

[clairebear22]

Hiya!

I ended up in A&E last night with my 1st ever urine infection!!

It started at 7pm when it began to slightly burn to pee. By 9.30 it was excrutiating to pee and I was also peeing blood!! I was also peeing every 3-4 mins!!

My OH took me to our out of hours Doc in the A&E at the hospital 2 mins from us. Turns out it is quite a bad infection!!

My poor OH's face was a picture when he saw my pee sample!! Lets just say i'm glad I can't stand cranberry juice!! ( really sorry for the TMI!)

Anyway because I told the doc were TTC he did a HPT and it was negative which lays to rest my 'niggling' feeling in my post on here yesterday! He sent us on our merry way with anti biotics for the next 3 days!! I've only been to the loo twice so far this morning and there seems to be no blood yet thank god!!

Thanks for reading!

Hi clairebear. I used to get it all the time. I can't count the amount of times I was at a&e peeing blood, doubled over in pain with it. Crying my eyes out, been getting it since I was 16. Eventually, after scans and a cystoscope they put me on antibiotics for six months as turned out I never really got rid of the infection from the first ever time I had it and your bladder needs six months straight to re heal itself, the pills they'd given me before just wernt strong enough. Nasty stuff cystitis. I can now say it's been a whole year since I've had an attack and hopefully it's cleared it for good. I wouldn't wish it on anyone. Glad your sorted and I hope it doesn't get you again x

 

[clairebear22]

Aww thanks Toni!

I think the fact that I was only in pain for 3 hours or so before getting antibiotics means it never had the chance to turn into full blown cystitis thank goodness!!

I'm back to normal now!

Glad your all sorted too!!
