Urinary problems

Since having aortic valve replacement my long term bladder problems have gone. I suffered for many years with painful bladder, frequency and frequent infection. Nothing since the surgery four months ago now,

I am booked in for irrigation and injections in my bladder over six weeks. Have cancelled them at the moment but wonder if this is to do with my repair.

Previously up four times a night now sleeping through.

Have changed my diet but not majorly. Would appreciate any views on this

Interesting subject, I had 2xcabg and an aortic valve repair and what had been diagnosed as irritable bowel syndrome many years ago has simply disappeared.

I have to assume that my bowel and your bladder are now getting a better blood supply and have returned to normal function.

Not what you're looking for?
