Thing 1
The Cystoscopy proceeded as per usual, except between dousing my vital parts with a cold disinfectant (I guess that is what it was) and leaving me in stirrups in the cold examining room for what seemed like a very long time before the doctor arrived, my hindermost parts were starting to more than a tad chilly. lol
Here ↓ is the doc's conclusion. It leaves me confused. While I am super pleased about passing the physical inspection, which I was able to follow on a big, sharp monitor, I remain confused about the extremely frequent urination. Hopefully the meds will help.
"He has had an excellent result from his bladder neck incision and Mitomycin-C injection. He is having worsening storage symptoms and I think there may be a component of overactive bladder here so I will treat him with Myrbetriq. Follow-up in 3 months"
====================
Thing 2
Having taught all of the varieties ↓ in my 30 years, I understand the sentiment. Aside from the spelling, there is also the pronunciation issue. Do you say the first syllable as in ME, May or MEG?
Thing 2- totally agree! I always revert to "May", but I have been corrected a few times. Fortunately I do not know that many ladies with those names. But I would surely try to get it right!
ReplyDeleteThing 1- overactive bladder is the pits. The doctor sounds optimistic!
ReplyDeleteHang in there (as a poster used say to encourage ladies in the stirrups in exam rooms)! I’m leaving out the addressees being called “baby.” Of course it was usually showing a little kitten hanging onto a branch of a tree. So I’m hoping your experience was better than both, and that the new meds will let you sleep longer through the night!
ReplyDeleteKeeping you in my thoughts, dear friend 🧡 Hoping you get good sleep and adequate rest.
