Need to wee a lot, and a bit painful, but not burning....

Hi all

I'm in a bit of a fix. Did something very bad yesterday and missed a docs appointment. I've phoned and appologised, but now have an ailment that I could do with help diagnosing!

It started about two weeks ago after 'some of the other' with DH with a faint itch in my nether regions. That has gone, but after a bleed mid-month [I'm on the pill & am as forgetful with this as I am docs appointments ] has been replaced with the urge to wee day and night (up 3 times last night), usually large quantities and it hurts when I wee, but not burning more like a musclular pain - and when I've got to go I really have got to go right away!

I have two ideas what it might be, but wanted to hear from others....

Thanks so much,
Sally

Sounds like some sort of urinary track infection possibly cystisis. HAve you tried lots of cranberry juice?

Oh I was up to wee lots in the night before I found out I was pg. I've had several uti's and usually had burning pain when weeing & painful bladder.

I'd see the doctor anyway because if it is a uti its best to get it sorted sooner rather than later.

You could always get a test and rule out pregnancy for peace of mind?

Buy some cystitis sachets from supermarket or Boots- drink lots of water , and go to drs for a urine test.
