Title: Overactive bladder
Post by: Joanies on April 24, 2023, 05:37:38 PM

Hello.  Just an update on the blood in urine issue.  Saw urology on Friday.  US scan all good. Cystoscopy was fine not painful at all.  Able to see everything on the camera . The staff were beyond lovely and so understanding of my anxiety.  Hats off to NHS care even in these times.  Everything was fine and turns out I have an overactive bladder. Thanks to you all for reassurances when I was at my lowest recently.

That’s so good to hear, Joanies. I must say I get myself worked up if I have to go in for any kind of follow-up/check! It’s such a relief when everything is just fine  :foryou:

Tnx for the update.  Was anything suggested to ease the symptoms?

I find that DManose is very effective. I believe it mops up the bugs causing infections that are not always picked up in tests.
