I had this done as well and had to comment about the pain. It was sooooo bad. And peeing after felt like I was being stabbed. I called doctor and the nurse said I was the first person to ever complain of pain after it - WHAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!???????????
I have chronic UTI's but my doc has put me on macrobid one per day so I have a constant antibiotic to ward off UTI's - it has helped but I am getting them more often again, so I need to go back and have a cystoscopy again but I made a pact with God I would never do that again...lol...seriously it hurt BADDDDDDDDDDDDD!!
Glad I'm not alone.
