Hey,
Tonight i have came to the conclusion that i have a bladder infection.
Iv'e had one before about 2 years ago and it hurts to urinate and have that feeling alot of the time, in fact staright after being to the toilet.
However this time (sorry to be graphic) when i wipe it's a light red colour, has anyone else experienced this? I have read it is common however it worried me.
Think i will have to wait until Saturday to see a doctor too I hate this.

While your waiting drink plenty of cranberry juice. Its a diuretic and can help flush things out.
When i had one last time, i stupidly waited 2 weeks before having the never to go to a doctor, i haven't a clue how i managed but it only took a coulpld of days to clear up.
I don't think i can get an appointment for tomorrow and i live about 10 miles from the doctors with no transport. Usually there is a saturday thing that anyone can go to in the morning without having an appointment, i thought i could go to that.
I'm not close to my parents so i feel embarssed bringing it up to them.
Thanks, it's getting to sleep i'm worried about! I feel like i'm bursting now but i know there is nothing there
Hopefully i can ring up and enquire about the Saturday surgery and if i'm correct, get my boyfriend to give up his lay in and take me over there!
No indian take aways this weekend then
Infections like this should be banned :crying:
Not really, same problem, no transport. I thought you had to give a urine sample for bladder infections anyway? Can chemists give out antibiotics if you describe something to them or do they do tests too?
What other reasons? Sounds worrying now.
It has said on many websites that it is common and last time i had the one the doctor did say there was a little bit of blood present too.
I wish i didn't live in the middle of no where!
Ok, well maybe i will have to brave it and tell my mum that i need to go to the doctors, i just hate saying it, last time i needed to go, she went white in the face and was like you aren't pregnant are you.
Thanks, i will have to tell my mum tomorrow and see if i can get an appointment that day, it's open till 6.30 so hopefully they will have time to fit me in.
Sometimes they ask if it is urgent, i just never know whether this would be classed as that or not.
Me too Thank you
