    Azgrandma,
    I did not have the problem you have mentioned. Sounds like a call to your doctor and make an appointment to visit. You shouldn't have to suffer like this. MK

    Hi,

    Did you make an appointment with your doctor? Whenever there is blood in the urine, you should not wait around, it could be because of the bladder infection, but in dealing with your cancer you just don't want to take any chances with it.

    Please keep in touch with how you are doing.

    I know how you feel
    I've just had chemo #5 and am spending the day in bed. I too feel pretty lousy. I don't have blood in my urine but I feel groggy. Chemo is like a poison that is rushing around the body and it is bound to make us feel bad. The pain in your legs could be neuropathy. I have always been up beat, ever since being diagnosed, but we are entitled to have days when we feel bad. You need to take care of you. Get plenty of rest and get in touch with your doctor regarding the blood in your urine.

    let your Doc know
    I had a terrible time after my 2nd infusion. For some reason they seem to all be different, but your symptoms should be reported. I'm sorry that you're feeling so badly!

    antibitoics
    from day one of my surgery in nov i have had a bladder infection except for three weeks.
    been on antiobotics all but three weeks.

    the ovary was attached to urethea so they put stint in by bladder, this may be one reason i keep getting infections. do not know if chemo causes it or not.


    i worry about getting antibotic resistance

    only 4 more weeks and will be done with chemo yeah yeah yeah

    then i can start to heal

    Infection
    When was your last urine test for infection. Sounds like that may be causing your spasms and other symptoms. I would insist on an exam and lab tests to check it out. Saundra
