Bladder spasm!! xxx

Hi All xxx

I woke up early hours yesterday drenched in sweat with nasty sharp pain in my bladder - after not feeling anything at all bladderwise for flipping months and months!!!

I emptied it no problem - it didn’t feel full or that I needed to go - no burning or anything

It’s just this horrible sharp pain coming in waves - inside just above my pelvis - below my belly button

I’ve had the odd single sharp pain very rarely in the past - but it has always gone quickly - it felt like something has gone into spasm and it needed to calm down!

I’ve never had an UTI so no idea what that feels like

I saw the doc down the hospital - she said there was no sign of infection but that there’s a lot of blood in my urine. My wee didn’t look pink or anything though so not sure how much is ‘a lot’

She’s sending the sample away anyway just in case but she thinks I’ve passed a stone

Funnily enough I’ve had 3urine tests over the last 2 years and GP has said there was some blood in it - but nobody has looked any further - probably what with everything else going on!

Think I’ll make an appointment on Monday anyway

The pain has eased a lot now to just feeling tender and achy - it was weird though as after a few hours it suddenly went from nasty sharp bladder type pain to agony and went right round my lower back and sides - thought I was birthing!! I was making grunting noises like birthing too!!

Anyone else had similar??? I feel rubbish this morning - hangover without the alcohol - what an ordeal!! xxxxjenxxxx

My husband gets kidney stones and he describes it much like you did. I told him he should try having a baby :slight_smile: Once the stone’s passed he generally feels battered, but it doesn’t last too long. Hopefully you’ll be much better soon. It can’t help that you lost a night’s sleep :frowning: Some people are prone to kidney stones so, just in case, it might be worth looking into ways of reducing the risk - I think a high fluid intake is important for example.

Thanks Karen x

Yes - I think it was a stone x

I think though to be honest - I’m just absolutely sick of having one thing after another - I can’t seem to recover in between!

My poor body feels like it just can’t take anymore - I feel psychologically like I can’t take anymore. I’m sick to death of doctors and hospitals and feeling ill day in day out and just not getting anywhere. I feel like I’ve got the biggest hangover without the alcohol - my leg is so numb and stiff this morning I can hardly walk and I’m boiling hot as usual. Sorry xxxxx

Hi Jen A friend of mine had this and she said that the pain was worse than giving birth, so this sounds like what it is. I hope you’ll recover now! Teresa xx

Don’t apologise!!! Certainly not on here :slight_smile:

I’m just feeling sorry for myself today!! xxx I’ll get over it!! xxxxx
