>Thanks for your reply Dr. Hill, my dr (gyn that did the hyst) has been out of the picture since about 4wks post op due to a life threatening illness...so I've been dealing with her partner.....who acts extremely nonplussed by my pain saying that it's probably bladder spasms and if it becomes bothersome (hello it's already extremely painful) then maybe I should take an anti-inflammatory???

My gyn comes back to work next week and they all want me to wait until after they cystoscopy to do anything further...would it be rude of me to want to see my own dr when she comes back? Her partner just sort of looks at me like "what are you doing back? she doesn't feel there is an issue.....I'm just feeling like I"m pushed back on the burner and left to sit??? Thanks in advance for any advice you can give, >--
