No but sorry to hear that. We know what that feels like and it’s not nice. Are they still recommending cranberry juice ? Hope you get over it soon.

Yes, at least twice shortly after. I put it down to the catheters and then when it was removed by bladder had forgotten how to empty. No problem that way for a long time now though.

Yes and more after the chemo ended. Take a preventative antibiotic now. Can't remember why but doc didn't want me drinking cranberry juice may have been because of the chemo.

Not what you're looking for?
