I have been having cystitis regularly for about 9 years but in the past month I have had it pretty much every other day. Went doctors on Tuesday and they have suggested an internal tomorrow. Problem is I have it again today feeling awful. Sick, hot and belly and back pain and really worried how bad it will be tomorrow when they have to prod about. Can u please tell me why they would have to do an internal. Thanks
Welcome to Chat Doctor. Recurrent bladder infection for 9 years for evaluation - Possibly the doctor want to evaluate the bladder internally and acquire a biopsy / sample form the bladder wall. Depending on the cells one can conclude the treatment. Understanding that it's not a pleasant investigation - but once for good final evaluation will be done - Good luck. Hope it helps you. Wish you a good health. Anything to ask ? Do not hesitate. Thank you.
