Finally I was able to consult a doctor the other day and yesterday the laboratory test was done. I will be expecting the result tomorrow and my x-ray is also scheduled 11 am o’clock in the morning. We found a General Practitioner just near our street and she is trusted by many. She is an Indian and she looks strict but she’s nice anyway. Dr Sulo Mahendran.
I consulted to her about my problem with the UTI and guess what I was freaking with all the questions. She talks a lot about sex. She was asking if I felt burning after performing it. I never take it seriously before that sex has really something to do with UTI and yeah I remember it with the research I’ve done. But I know for sure it’s not the reason why this UTI attacking me now. Called it weird but the time we arrived here in Oz and I experienced so much cold, freezing with the weather gosh that’s keeps me coming back to the toilet and pee little by little (frequent dysuria in medical terms). It’s normal for pregnant buy hey I am not! This illness wakes me up 2 0′clock in the morning until 5 and it’s really frustrating because I want to sleep but how? The pain or the burning sensation is freaking me, bothers me a lot. I need to keep myself busy like spending my time here in my computer by that time just to forget the uneasy feeling while my family is soundly sleeping.
Another question Dr Mahendran asked was about feeling the burning sensation before and after menstruation. I do and the feeling is much worse. I will just cry alone especially when I can’t sleep. Burning sensation (balisawsaw) in Filipino term is my best enemy. So the Doctor recommended me to have the lab test. She referred us to a specific clinic laboratory for the entire test.
I was thankful my hubby was still able to spend his time with me even busy at work. He’s just scared to lose me early lol!
Tomorrow he’ll be with me again for my kidney x-ray. I will empty my bladder by 9 am and then drink 4glasses of water between 9-10 am. Full bladder before x-ray has to be done. No fasting required.
I just hope nothing is really bad or serious problem about with my gall bladder or kidney as I am afraid to leave my family early and kids are still young. I’ll be okay, God is with me.
