Hi everyone,
I have been off the board for a long time. Sorry
I just had my bladder stretched in the hospital.
I have been coping with the pain for what seems like forever. I just couldn't take it anymore so the Doctor had me do the stretch thing. I have been having treatments every week now for three weeks. I think they are helping a lot however I am still having pain just not as bad. I even had a few days that I felt normal. My question is, does anyone out there have strokes. I had one 2 years ago and one more two days after the trip to the hospial. I am only 47 and the doctor said there is no reason for me to be having them and they are going to send me to the nurlogist. I hope the strokes are not related to the bladder problem. I have been trying to stop stressing but it is hard to do.

Thanks for your help
Cat :)

I'm sorry to hear about your recent stroke. Maybe it is completely unrelated. I agree about the neurologist. You should definitely have proper care for that.

Hope you're feeling better soon!

Sometimes having a mild stroke can be a real life saver. I'm glad you will be seeing a neurologist. Hopefully a cause will be found.

Hi Everyone,
I had a CT Scan and they found that I had a small bleed with the first stroke and no known damage with the second one. I haven't seen the doctor yet. I will see him on the 21st. Other than that everthing looks normal on the Scan.
Just wanted to let you all know I am doing a lot better now.
Thank for your support.
