hi there,

i have experienced bladder problems unfortunately after 3 of my pelvic surgeries. the doctors say this is not uncommon and is usually caused by the catheter they put in you. my last surgery though the doc said he would be the only one putting the foley catheter(sp.?) in and not letting anyone else touch it. well it worked, i didn't have a bladder infection this time. i think maybe too many people are handling it before hand. hope you feel better after you get antibiotics.At Sat, 2 Aug 2003, nicole wrote: >
