mel dawn: symtoms

[mothmin]

Hey Mel, I just read about your bladder problems, I don't know if you were on the board right after my surgery, but I was in horrible pain with bladder probs like yours for a week. I did not sleep for 5 nights, as laying down casue a feeling of urgency. I took those little black over the counter bladder pills, and also dr. gave me anti biotics, even though I was neg for infection, I've had prostate problems for years so my dr. gave me something called flowmax. My problems stopped right after, but sounds so much like your probs, it maybe was a spinal thing. good luck!

Hi Mothmin,
Yes I was on the board right after your surgery. I believe i told you to tell the NS as it might be related to your surgery. My doc feels it is a progression of symptoms with the cord compression. Cord compression can cause frequency, hesitation,and incontinence. I have everything else, might as well experience that too!
I see the NS on Feb. 18, just have to hang in there til then.
Mel

ps I am sure it is not my prostrate
