Q: Trip to the Hospital...and a Question.

I woke up at 4:30 this morning cause I had to pee, no biggie that happens every night but this time it felt very uncomfortable and it hurt to walk. I was so tired I tried to sleep but I was in pain so I took a bath and still felt $hitty. So finally I went to the er and they ran a bunch of tests. Well he came back and said that most of the tests came back normal but there are a lot of white blood cells in my urine which means something is irratating my bladder. He said it didnt look like a typical bladder infection but he didnt want to leave it untreated so he prescribed me bactrim and pyridium. He said if I start feeling pain in my lower back it could mean there is a kidney infection. Now im thinkin about this and is seems funny to me that ive been having alot of fainting spells, several bladder infections and I just got a really terrible cold which I never get. I know they could all be seperate things but im worried maybe im fainting for another reason-the same reason something is irratating my bladder and maybe I got so sick cause my immune system is down a bit. I told the nurse everything and she said he may want to check my blood sugers cause my blood pressure was low. I dont know how that works but it was like 70 over 90 or something. He never check it though. Well sorry this is so long but I just need to figure out if im over analyzing everything or what!

Hey
Well, I see where you have cause to be worried. Could you be diabetic? Not that all that is examples of it, but it just sounds like you could be. I think you shoudl speak with your ob/gyn about it. It could be nothing, but it could be something sweetie! Take care of yourself and little man~

See that is what I was wondering since the fainting spells come on so quick. I havent had to do the glucose thing yet and im not looking forward to it seen they have to take you blood! Shocked and it tastes nasty and makes me feel like caca! I have an appt. On the 7th so that is still kinda far. Do you think I should make one ahead of time?

I think that that doctors appt is far away.. I wouldnt worry to much though. Most of the time docs know what the hell they are doing!!
