Diagnosis of bilateral cystic nodules in bladder after years of chronic UTIs
Hi all.
I've been suffering with chronic UTIs since I was around 15 (now 31). I can't tell you how many times I went to see the Dr about it and got fobbed off. I tried everything from antibiotics to D-Mannose, but nothing helped.
Eventually it got to a point where I pleaded with the Dr to help me. I was finally referred to urology (NHS England) for a full investigation. I had a cystoscopy which revealed a fibroid in my bladder, then I was referred for a CT scan. The result from the CT scan was "NO renal, ureteric or urinary bladder lesion", but discovered "a finding of some bilateral cystic nodules".
I have not received any information about these findings, or what happens next. I don't even know what cystic nodules are, or if they're dangerous or not. I'm confused as to why I was first told it was a fibroid, but now I've been told it is cystic nodules. I don't even know if there's a difference.
I want to try and stay off Google for my own sanity, but just wanted to reach out to see if anyone on here has experienced the same thing.
Thank you in advance.
