The GP tested husband's latest wee sample this morning and said there's no blood in it and hardly any white cells, so the infection has gone. He said husband shouldn't still be having pain, so there's clearly something else going on, as we thought. He was a bit dubious about it being kidney stones, as husband has no other symptoms such as fever, sweating, feeling sick or pains in his back or sides, and said in any case, once kidney stones have been passed the pain goes. He took a blood sample for PSA (prostate) testing, and is referring him to hospital for further investigations, he should have an appointment within 2 weeks. I'm not speculating as to what might be wrong, no point in worrying about the 'C' word before he's had more tests. But it is worrying, all the same, and I don't like seeing him in so much pain.
I feel like death warmed up today, but have plenty to keep me busy and my mind occupied.
At least he has been referred which is half the battle sometimes. Hopefully the hospital will find out what is going on. Don’t be fobbed off.
ReplyDeleteIf hubby gets any worse I would go up to A&E that's the way to get seen more quickly. 2 weeks is a long time if you are in pain. I know its a long wait but at least they will do some tests.

Good, you will find out what is going on. And the docs will then know how to treat.
ReplyDeleteVery worrying, I agree, but I'm glad the infection has gone and hopefully the referral will come through really quickly. Much love . . .
ReplyDeleteWe must be on the same wavelength Sooze. It's mind your own business growing in the cracks it comes back each year and I like it.

I agree 2 weeks is a long time to wait. I hope he has some strong pain killers.
ReplyDeleteYes two weeks is a long time when you are in pain. Hope he gets help and glad you have got plenty to keep you busy.
ReplyDeleteHope things settle down for him and glad the GP is making a referral - not before time.
ReplyDeleteEverything crossed again with the hope that it won't be a two week wait! xx
