Hello everyone, I know I have brought this subject up before but I 'm asking anyone out there suffer bouts of extreme pain when trying to pee. It gives me spasms of pain and difficult to pass urine. It can come out of the blue and last until I actually pass all the water I have drunk which invariably happens after an hour or two. The nurses always relate it to BCG cystitis but I struggle to get any painkillers that can have a soothing effect on it. I avoid all the culprits that can trigger it but it is so debilitating not just the pain but the mere fact it can happen so suddenly. I was supposed to be going out for lunch today but I think that now is a no no.
It doesn't happen every day but when it does you know what you're in for.
Thank you for listening.
