I have had a problem with bladder and kidney infections since I found out I have Type2 diabetes. My diabetes is under good control but I still have infections. I have ended up in the emergency room several times and was once admitted to the hospital for a week.
To make matters worse,I fell off a ladder and badly broke my leg. I have not been able to walk for 2 months and it looks like another 2 months. During this time,I have had 3 bladder infections.
Even with insurance,this has been terribly expensive and SO hard on my husband.
I've tried everything to stop these infections but nothing is working. I have one as we are speaking. To make matters even worse,I have a condition called urethral stenosis that causes bladder inflammation. These are usually treated with a dilation. Going back and forth to the dr. for these has left us financially in trouble. My poor husband has to take time off work to get me to the dr.
Needless to say,this has been badly affecting our marriage. He's just about had it.
Any suggestions on how to control these infections?
