I’ve been having some UTI symptoms for a few days. And they were really stressing me out because I think they put a catheter in you for surgery. Which is another issue I’m trying not to worry about. But anyways for the past couple days I’ve been using over the counter stuff and chugging cranberry juice like crazy and it hasn’t been helping. So this morning I went to immediate care. I gave them a sample and got a 5 day prescription for an antibiotic and I was in and out in about half an hour. I feel much better mentally now that I’ve taken care of this. I’m not sure if it’s a UTI (they are going to call) or if it’s just hysterectomy related pain or even just anxiety. But I’m glad I’ll know and get this taken care of before my surgery. I honestly think my internal ultrasound caused this. I actually had a nightmare last night where I needed another internal one done and I was freaking out. Also my classmates from elementary school were watching. When I gave the sample today I ducked into the mens bathroom and it was empty and stayed empty the whole time. There was just one stall and one urinal. On my way back to the room the nurse called me sir.

I’m actually doing well with my therapist now that I’ve been to the doctor and had coffee. So I’m able to clear my mind now. I did send her one last email early this morning chewing her out a bit at how unprofessional she’s being. But now I am actually ok with things. I think this possible UTI was really concerning me.
