Flexible Scope Exam- Bumping!

[Guest guest]

Hi Sheila and all

Cos of recurring UTI infections have been called for a flexible scope

examination of the bladder as a day patient, says you will be there for 1-4

hours. Anyone had this investigation please? What to expect. Any advice.

It is done under local anasthetic aparently.

Hello Stephie

I have had this done few yrs back for the same issue you have. At that time I

was in overnight as was a full aneasthetic, praps yours is a local as you

mention in hopsital for 1-4hrs. My tummy was a bit swollen after as I was told

that air is put into the bladder, there was a bit of local pain which

paracetomol fixed. Sadly I came out of the hospital with another infection.

Because I had suffered endless rounds of UTI infections and copious antibiotics

which never kept it at bay - a few years back I decide to research it myself.

Since discovering D-Mannose I have never looked back and rarely Ever had a UTI

again. It was so successful my GP started reccomending it to her UTI patients!

It is a natural product and when I learnt why it worked it made so much sense. I

have told endless more folk about it all have had amazing results.If you google

Waterfall D Mannose you'll arrive at the correct supplier.

Check

this out Stephie http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/003903.htm

I am not sure

whether they use a contrast dye to help with imaging, but I do know that Manda, one of

our members, went for a bladder scan, and she was given this without any prior warning,

and she had quite a severe reaction to the dye that was used, which I believe

was iodine for several days afterwards. You should find out about this before

any procedure is started Stephie and make them very aware of your hypothyroid

state.
