hallen651 8 Posted January 6, 2014 I had my revision surgery from band to sleeve on Nov 27th 2013 and my doc has had me on a lot of medication since surgery. However today I have noticed when I go pee it hurts and I feel like I have to urinate all the time but when I go it's very little and it burns and hurts like crazy. I'm calling the doctor first thing in the morning to see if I can be seen. Do you think it might be a bladder infection from all the medication and maybe not getting in enough Water?

Recycled 2,182 Posted January 6, 2014 (edited) Sounds very specific. You should make an appointment with a Urologist. Maybe a trip to the ER is in order. Edited January 6, 2014 by Recycled Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LindafromFlorida 1,542 Posted January 6, 2014 Sounds like it could be a UTI. Staying hydrated is crucial. Sounds good to call your doctor! Hope you feel better. 1 onedaycloser reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Beach Lover 1,084 Posted January 6, 2014 (edited) Sounds like a bladder infection to me (UTI). Drink as much Water as you can handle and call your doctor before it gets worse. If you start peeing blood then you need to go to the urgent care for meds. I am definitely not a doctor but have had these nasty boogers before! Good luck to you!!

Birthsjourney 146 Posted January 6, 2014 Urininary Infections ( UTI) are common post op issues... I have had two...drinking more helps and the antibotic is needed to clear it out...Good Luck but don't let it go..it can go up into your kidneys Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kyleebean 209 Posted January 6, 2014 Hallen651, We both had our revision from Band to sleeve on the same day! I, too, ended up with a horrible UTI and yeast infection. It was from all the antibiotics post op. Would love to connect with you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Indigo1991 1,612 Posted January 6, 2014 Cranberry juice should stop the stinging - but you need something from the doc. Drink as much as you can and it will hurt less... Poor you, hope you feel better soon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ms.AntiBand 2,984 Posted January 6, 2014 Definitely UTI.. Get some antibiotics and it will go away. I have dealt with this my entire life and it's awful. Jut get in ASAP Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sassy Pants1 186 Posted January 7, 2014 Ugh, a UTI can be so uncomfortable. Antibiotics will clear it right up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hallen651 8 Posted January 7, 2014 Thanks everyone for caring! I am calling the doctor first thing this morning to see if they can get me in today! Do they have to do an exam or is it just a urine test? This is my 1st time having this problem. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Indigo1991 1,612 Posted January 7, 2014 You usually tell them the symptoms and they make a diagnosis. Never had an an exam or a test... But not a pleasant thing to have, antibiotics usually clear it up quickly. Hope you feel better soon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DirtyHarriett 94 Posted January 7, 2014 If there is a test, it is to sample your urine. Not a big deal at all. Glad you are being seen! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Oregondaisy 2,021 Posted January 7, 2014 You should be able to just take a sample in., Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hallen651 8 Posted January 8, 2014 Well I went to the doctors yesterday and I don't have UTI so my doctor is sending out to have a culture done to see if I have any other infection, I don't have the symptoms anymore so I'm hoping everything comes back good.
