I had quite the scare yesterday too. Back in June I had the joy of experiencing my first every bladder/UTI infection...worse pain of my life! Well on Wednesday night I started to feel mild symptoms of another one coming on. I got some cranberry juice and tried to flush my system but I was totally unsuccessful. By about 5 pm yesterday I was in full blown pain. I ended up in the urgent care clinic and 2 hours and 2 prescriptions later, I was finally headed home to rest. The scary part was that I was afraid my surgery might have to be postponed due to the severe UTI I was diagnosed with and the fact that I am now on a 3 day antibiotic. But I asked my nurse friend and the doctor at the clinic and they both assured me that I was good to go for surgery, THANK GAWD!
My upcoming surgery is really bittersweet for me. On the one hand I am so thrilled to get my new SOFT implants but on the other, I realize that I will never have this moment/experience again. That may be something you as the reader will never understand but I compare it to how I think people feel about weddings or being pregnant. You plan, stress, research and just want to "get it over with." But then it's all over and you almost want all that craziness back! Maybe you can relate.
