Update on IC 20m been going on for 3+ months
I finally went to see the urologist today after waiting another month, i was so excited to finally see a real doctor.
When i arrived i got x rays and i sent in my pee. When the urologist came in he said he immediately knew my problem without me saying anything, the X rays showed I had a bunch of stool in my colon. He compared it to the equivalent of a babies head.
And he said I never had a UTI even though ive gone to the ER and they said I did, and found Nitrates, Leukocytes, proteins, and blood the first time, then it came back so i had to go to urgent care which found once again i had a uti, so they gave me more antibiotics. I then had to go to ER again because my symptoms wouldnt kick but that time i had no UTI, and also checked stds/stis showing false then told me IC.
I've been in searing pain for months in my dick and this guy was talking to me like I was a dumb ass claiming he was a medical surgeon and I was wasting his time, and that this happens all the time with young males. He told me to get stool softeners and got me tf out of there
I started taking them and I was quite backed up actually so hopefully he was right, it just felt so condensing. This guy didn't really give a fuck about me and made me feel so small and dumb when I had been literally dreaming of this appt for months. I just hope his grandiose decision making was right.
Well, rant is over anyone else have any similar symptoms from Constipation causing IC?
