GEEEZ you guys are having a rough go. Lulu didn't realize that you had the surgery although I knew it was coming up just lost track of time. I hope you guys start feeling better.

I was on Cipro for 2 bacterial and a yeast infection after my last surgery. It took a good two weeks after the catheter was removed 11 days post op to start feeling better.

Hugs guys

I was stage 4 but got downgraded to stage 2 this surgery!!  My last surgery I was just like you.  I hated the catheter, I know how painful that is.  Rest easy girl, hoping we Both feel better SOON.

hey Reese-

I am right here with you girl.  I had lap surgery last Wednesday and had a big nodule on my ureters excised, as well as polyps on my cervix and scar tissue from my last surgery.  I have a bladder infection now as well and am on Cipro.  Don't mess around, if the antibiotic doesn't work soon, go back.  I am in full spasm and in the worst pain i have EVER experienced.  My doc doubled my pain med dose and I have to go back and see her next week to be re-evaluated because she is concerned I am bleeding in my uterus.
I have a little discharge too, and the smell is different, but it's improving with the Cipro.
Just keep checking in with the doc okay?  Post op infection is nothing to mess with.
Hang in there-
Lu
