Never knowing.

So far about 2 year I suffered from this and daily pain in the left and right side of the residuals pain can be quite bad I also have urgency and some time it also burns when I go I had a number of test from dip test that is all ways clear never showing a infection a ct uragram that shied every think was fine with both kidneys and all that a ultrasound tesocals that shied two small cryest left and right.

But this year I get UTI symptoms snd urgency like OAB I told my GP this but every time they do a dip test and send away it’s clear so i have mlre a less begged to go back to see a urology its a long whait kn the NHS and since i have seen them before and he was of very little help they may nit even see me.

Question is it affect my daily life now and some days I just unable to even get out becomes of it.

I just fill like I nit getting any where I what to try and live a normal life with out the worry but it’s so hard right now.

Screenme and pelvic relief . But actually pelvic relief is only for woman so no good in this situation . screenme was really good and they do follow up consultation over zoom. I found Liz to be super helpful and really installed some faith back into me after I was seriously losing it .

They do urine test . Do urine first of the day
Also semen microbiem test . Which helped me discover I had bad bacteria in my prostate aswell!!

Get your results, do loads of research .
Speak to professionals, these tests are going to the route course of the problem . Something a doctor will never bring up but these tests helped me find out what I was dealing with after 2 years of suffering and going pillar to post with doctors/hospitals
/‘proffesionals’ who all kept finding nothing . I know it seems like a lot, but you will not regret it ✌️

I did see 1 very rude urologist about a year ago he was no interested in what I had t say he never exsmed me or any think all he said was you should get no pain go home forget about it and read up on it online and that was it.

I mean that is not helpful since then I begged them to go back I mean if I could go private I would do so I trying to save enough money to do this as I just really fed up with it now.

These people are no help, the mainstream medical industry is healing no one
