Hi all-- i'm sure I have had a long going UTI--well my Doc does not want to do
any cultures unles i'm deathly sick----he say's all supra-pubic wearers always
have 2 or more colonizations in the bladder from bad bacteria anyway. He wants
to do a Cystoscopy ------- I don't know why because each of the past 2 years he
went in looking for stones-and saw none. They want me to sign this form saying
I am aware of risks of bleeding-infection-injury to bladder and
uretha-anasthesia risks and other serious risks requiring further surguries.---
it also say's perform biopsies of bladder-remove clots and cauterize bleeding
areas---------THIS ALL SCARES ME AND MY WIFE. We are wondering if we should
change urologists once again----(-we left the 1st urologist because he mostly
did surguries and did not like follow up treatment for infections and etc.) Do
any of you have an opinion on this?? I have not had any uti treatments or
anti-biotics in over a year? thanks for
any input or thoughts on this, DAN H>***
