Please help me. I'm falling between my cancer hospital, my urology hospital, A+E and my superb but put-upon GP.
Politics aside, I'm suffering physically and (increasingly) mentally. I've been on max dose Co-codamol for at least 3 weeks. It only provides effective pain relief if I take it absolutely on time every dose and every day.
What nothing has done so far is stop the spasms, with the distressing leakage of urine around the cathether. Very late in the day (my TWOC is scheduled for April 30th) my cancer hospital has told me about anticholinergics, which seem like they could help, but no-one wants to prescribe them it seems.
In desperation, I'm turning back to Buscopan because the consensus seems to be "it does no harm". I'm on Movicol to counter the disastrous effect of Co-codamol on my bowel, which in turn is torturing my bladder.
Padron the melodrama, but has anyone found a way through a similar mess?
I'm dealing with lymphoedema also, which is making my world very small.
Thanks,
Chris
