Guest guest Posted October 6, 2005 Report Share Posted October 6, 2005 hi, I have recently had surgery on my bladder, ureter and right kidney. After the surgery (which was Monday) I have been in excruciating pain and not able to do anything normally.... eat, sleep, move around, walk, go to the bathroom, etc. Finally today I am off the heavy pain meds and able to walk a little by myself. Unfortunately they've got me on a heavy antibiotic but I also have had a consistent fever for 3 days... goes up and down from 99 to 101 and back again. I am sleeping a lot but not eating much. I have had to sleep sitting up because of the pain, unless I took the pain meds which are twice as strong as Vicoden and really " knock me out " and that is not really sleep. Yesterday I could finally sleep on my side and try some new positions. The worst thing is the spasms.. any time I try to go to the bathroom I have horrible bladder spasms and because I am wearing a big stent on the right side, that goes from the kidney to the bladder, it will spasm all the time. This is very painful. But I don't want to take anymore drugs... they wanted to prescribe me anti-spasm meds but I said no, no more drugs! I need to know what to do in order to be normal again. Any help is appreciated! Lane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 8, 2005 Report Share Posted October 8, 2005 Man, that sounds terrible! I know you will get better-informed advice soon, on this list, but I'd do google searchs on : colloidal silver, (pure, not sweetened) cranberry juice, dandelion (root?), grapefruit-seed oil, oregano, along with urinary tract infection. I hope you feel better soon! scott. herbal remedies , " Lane Eddington " <goldenpoems@a...> wrote: > > hi, > > I have recently had surgery on my bladder, ureter and right kidney.
