About Me: Female, 56, Wildomar - CA, member since Feb 2008
To start off with I am so tired of being sick. In Aug.04 I was diagnosed with Lymphocytic Interstitial Pneumonitis. My life went on hold for 3 years. Lungs are much better and I am at last off oxygen. I have been fighting a UTI since Feb.06. Was in ICU with a UTI at
...
[More] that time. My blood pressure got down to 50/16 I was very Septic and they did not think I would live. Then again in Aug.06 I was back in the hospital with an another UTI and again Septic. Then in Feb. 07, started my year long fight with the UTI. Since I am on Prednisone for my lung disease I have never had a symptom of the UTI. In June of 07 my pulmonary doctor sent me to a urologist. He scoped my bladder and found nothing, ordered a ct and at that time a cyst was found on my left ovary. Aug.13,07 I went in for a complete hysterectomy and at that time the surgeon put a rather large hole in my bladder (about the size of a half dollar). I became totally incontinent Aug. 25th till Dec. 4th, 07 when it was surgerically repaired. Today I got the results of my latest urine culture and it was Negative. But my white blood cell count is high in my urine. I want my doctor to find out why.
Other than this I am retired as well as my husband is.
