Hi!
I woke up yesterday with extreme stomach pains, from my navel down to bladder. I broke out in a cold sweat and my blood pressure dropped dramatically. I went to the doctor, had a urine test done and he said I have a bladder infection. He put me on Bactrim, which I started yesterday, but from what most people say, that relieves their symptoms/pain almost immediately. I'm still feeling the same stomach pain. There is no burning during urination, however the pressure and pain in my bladder is intense when I have to go. Is it possible that it's Interstitial Cystitis and not a bladder infection? He sent my sample off to do a culture test. Maybe I'm overreacting, but it hurts, and when it hurts, you worry. Anyone have similar symptoms? Please help! Thanks!
