Urinary tract infection?

in Uterine/Endometrial Cancer #1

i found some very old posts from 2009 about symptoms that felt like a urinary tract infection. Has anyone currently posting had this? I just had my last bracy on Thursday and probably a day before I started having a little stinging while urinating. Well now it has increased along with some frequency. Has anyone else had this. Am I to assume that it isn't really an infection, but possibly scaring from radiation? I'm pretty sure the cancer center won't be available today as its Saturday. I could go to prompt care but I don't know that that is necessary or the place to go? If any of you have had this what did you do. I don't really feel bad like a fever or anything, but I am cautious because I only have one kidney.

    My radiologist said that

    My radiologist said that could happen as a side effect to the brachy. Did you try the AZO?

    Also, most of the centers have an on call person so if you leave a message, my guess is they will call you back.

    I hope it is not a UTI!

    Love and Hugs,

    I'm probably jumping the gun

    I'm probably jumping the gun because any pain has subsided now, so I will wait and see.
