Hello ladies. I have a similar problem with my bladder, however it's
backwards to what you guys are going through. I go to use the bathroom
and I have about a 15-20 second "delay" and sometimes accompanies by
shooting pains up through my belly button. Sometimes it's really bad
and I'll sit there and count up to 30 before anything happens. I had my
laposcopy done 10/21/03 and I've had this going on since two weeks prior
to that and unfortunately since my surgery I still haven't had a day of
pain relief. I'm actually going back to my (new - went for second
opinion) doctor this Friday to get the results from all the testing I
just had done (on bladder, intestines, appendix etc). He told me at the
consult (after doing internal exam) that he believes my appendix could
be inflammed, my right ovary isn't moving like it's supposed to and
something appears to be "sitting" on my bladder. I don't know if it's
an adhesion or what. My dr that did the surgery did remove endo and
multiple cysts but they were all bi-nine (spelling?) I'm extremely
nervous about what my fate holds for me Friday and what the doc's gonna
say. Anyone with advice or personal story similar to mine that can give
me some tips? This bladder thing is ridiculous, not to mention the daily
burning pain in my right side. Anyway...have a great day/night! take
care, tizzie.
