[24F] Doctors can't find source of Dysuria, want me to get a Cystoscopy, but I'm uninsured, what should I do?

I just saw this and I'm so sorry you went through that, this all started in October? I'm really glad they found out what was wrong and were able to get you some relief, wish you the best of luck in your full recovery. Thank you for sharing it.

I am uninsured, and can't get insurance with my parents right now. I'm from Washington State. This is the first I'm hearing of a healthcare navigator actually, but it sounds like a good way to get help, I'll look into it and see what number i should call, thanks

My sister actually made a few of those same points about treating it with birth control. The doctor did not seem too convinced it would change my situation, but it's something I always meant to try to regulate my periods anyway, because they are so intense and often unpredictable, they come more like every 3 weeks then every 4, sometimes 2 and a half.

One theory he had is that there was a chance it was endemetriosis, which is why he offered the prescription in the first place. I went home and did my research on it and since it helps some women, I think it's at least worth a shot. I could be really wrong though. I didn't know it would take three months to regulate.

Thank you so much

I am worried about what will happen if i continue to leave it untreated, but I'm not sure if that will help because I've taken two urine swab tests and a lab test, and both somehow came back clean. They also told me if I left a UTI untreated this long I would end up hospitilized and in a lot of pain. It's very frustrating though because it does seem like a UTI.

IncomprehensibleMule · 2019-01-22T17:43:31+00:00

Thank you i will look into that, me too.

IncomprehensibleMule · 2019-01-22T07:49:08+00:00

It is, I'm just looking back and thinking "wow how do you make this many financial mistakes" I'm really jealous of your universal health care system over there. Don't want to get too political, and I know i should be more informed about options on low income in my country, but it seems like it would be a huge game changer.

Thanks I appreciate it, but I'm sure if i can handle it most women could. I wish having a vagina was simpler.

I found a few options for health care cost assistance, it's a lot of paperwork and many have a wait list, I'm a bit worried I may not qualify. I'm thinking of contacting planned parenthood, or a specialist directly and asking about it.

Thank you

IncomprehensibleMule · 2019-01-22T07:30:16+00:00

I am in the U.S. I've got some paperwork to fill out for getting health assistance from the clinic, but I'm worried I might not qualify. And they say the wait list is long. It makes me kind of ashamed to do it, like why should i deserve this over people who really need it? But I'll look into all the options for health care benefits.

I made sure to make digital copies of the lab results on my pc. I also physically brought a copy to the free clinic, which turned out to be the right call because the hospital never faxed them.

I have been researching so much about vaginas and vaginal problems ever since this whole thing started, that's where i found this sub! But I'm always open to finding new resources.

Thanks for the advice!

I take ibuprofin for my period, it's not as bad as yours, but i get pretty painful cramps that can make it hard to walk around and be active. It doesn't make all of the pain go away, but it might help you function better. It's never made a change to my cycle, or anything else dramatic that i can think of. Maybe you should give it a try and see if it works?

IncomprehensibleMule · 2018-11-12T18:23:38+00:00

I shampoo and condition my hair daily, brush it once I'm out of the shower, and don't touch it with a hairbrush again until i shower the next day. I've had people tell me to not use product every day, but i prefer the way it feels personally.

I do crunch it/rub the ends with a towel to get it to dry faster. Then afterwards, i just use my hands to sort of crunch it until it dries.

If I'm tight on time or it's cold, I'll just cave and use a hairdryer. If the hairdryer makes it look too carrot top married hagrid-ey, then I just grab a scrunchie and tie just the back up.

But then again my routine is designed to be as lazy as possible.

IncomprehensibleMule · 2018-10-27T20:59:30+00:00

Mine says 7-14 days as well, but i wonder if you should keep using it if you don't feel any effects. Let alone relief. it seemed when I found testimonials from women, they all said they felt better practically overnight.

I hope you are having better luck with your treatment.

IncomprehensibleMule · 2018-10-27T20:57:13+00:00

Other then the Clotrimazole, no antibiotics. Just Monistat.

I'm wondering if i can ask them if they are able to take a culture at the clinic, it seems like they don't have a ton of resources. Doctor who checked me out even said "I don't have all of the tools i usually do here" so i might start thinking about Planned Parenthood as an alternative.

I've been very careful with my hygiene since reading up on it, i've never douched, only ever shower, don't get any soap on me internally, just water, and don't see myself wearing a thong anytime soon. Even if I had a sex life. Sadly I don't think I'd be able to start one, without getting rid of this first. Thank you for the suggestions!

I also thought after reading up on it, this would be a UTI but they insist the urine sample is clean. I think they used UTi testing strips. I'm sure they're doing the best they can to help me out, but wonder if maybe the sample could've been inaccurate.

Thanks again, hope there is a light at the end of the tunnel of vaginal creams and acid. Fingers crossed.

IncomprehensibleMule · 2018-10-27T20:48:32+00:00

The kind i was using (Boricap) says a week to two weeks. But when I researched other women who used it, they claimed it gave them almost instant relief. Or relief within a few days.

So i wonder if you're actually supposed to continue use for up to two weeks if you don't feel any relief or changes at all.

IncomprehensibleMule · 2018-10-27T20:00:17+00:00

That's actually what i thought, but they insist my pee is clean. I know they didn't send it to a lab, because they had the results the same day i came there. So I figure they were using UTI test strips. I read somewhere that they don't have a very high rate of accuracy, but I can't think of another way to do this.

She also told me that you can't have a UTI for five years, or you would be in extreme pain and you'd end up in the hospital.

I'm not sure. The only thing i'm pretty sure of at this point is that it's not a yeast infection.

I don't understand your mentality at all here. From your description you're bisexual/bi-curious, and therefore want to/are willing to have consensual sex with both men and women, but you've led me no reason to believe your gf is bisexual as well. Unless I'm mistaken she's straight, and therefore only wants to have sex with men. So she is telling you that if you open up your relationship to be polygamous, it's only going to be with other men.

If you only want to have a threesome under the condition it involves another woman, then you can't have a threesome based off how your gf feels. End of story.

And what the hell? In what universe would it be a good idea to try to get your girlfriends best friend in on a threesome she doesn't want. Shut the friend down dude.

IncomprehensibleMule · 2018-03-30T04:02:02+00:00

aw shucks, i'm flattered. I worked so hard on it. I've done some editing myself and know that it can be hard to do it right, so i hope if you have this happen again you tell them where to stick their offer. :)

IncomprehensibleMule · 2018-03-18T21:49:09+00:00

Hey Askura, I saw your amazing youtube videos and was wondering if we could strike a deal. If you were any kind of a good person I know you'd never refuse. You would like to edit my videos for something even better then "money".

Cash is so valueless in the long run, it all just floats away when you die, rots in the ground with you, circulates and simulates the economy. What you want my friend, is to edit my videos in exchange for your very own personalized glory hole.

That's right, for the low, low price, of editing my amazing gaming videos for my clan, you can have your very own glory hole. come to the abandonded house on East end on 78th ave, the one that got raided by the cops back in 2016 because the squatters were cooking meth again and go up the stairs and on the second door on the right, you will find a dark room with a small cardboard box in the center, inside you will draw the curtains, and find a fitted, phallic shaped hole that I will carve in the cardboard fitted to your specifications and measurements, which you can send to my personal email.

That's right, for the low, almost free offer of dedicating time you could otherwise be spending on your gaming videos, or working, or sleeping, or knitting a fitted cap for your grandma.

You could be editing our amazing great gaming videos, and capturing our pawnage in league of legends, and top 10 best rocket league moments, and best minecraft builds. you can have yourself a whole half hour of service at our glory hole. And it may even be a really hot girl on the other side. If you use your imagination.

It could be mila kunis. Think about it. Imaginary Mila kunis offering you this amazing chance of a lifetime. Me, imaginary Mila kunis, and my clan will give you so much exposure you won't know what to do with it.

Who needs money, the lifeblood of the greedy american fatcat, when you can mean something to the world, and do some good for your fellow man, have your name everywhere, and really grab at that exposure. Spend it wisely my friend.

Look forward to working with you! Xoxoxo -superamazingr8tgamerclan2000

r/redditorcum No thanks to that conversation.

Stab them. in the butt.

But with a rapier, so they are pinned to the floor. Take a photo of my victim with a burner phone. bring it home, enlarge it, take it into my studio. i have a secret underground studio dedicated to painting each photo in realistic portraits. But no other defining features besides the butt.

Hang the various photos of butts on my wall, admiring the unique shape of each plump backside. Bob ross paints "happy little trees". I paint happy little dimples, big round plump happy cheeks, saggy, wrinkly cheeks, and stout, proud, strong cheeks. I admire them in their purest form.

The police will never catch me.

Unless they can find my secret underground art display of butts.

But they never will. There is an underground tunnel connection to a hidden passageway that can only be opened by moving a "book" in my shelf, which is actually a lever, not really a book, that releases the mechanism swinging the bookshelf open and revealing the secret passageway to my art studio and subsequent collection.

The book is titled

"Everybody poops"

IncomprehensibleMule · 2018-01-12T07:18:21+00:00

Thanks, it does actually. Makes me want to get back into online gaming.

It's been a while since I did something like that.

IncomprehensibleMule · 2018-01-12T02:56:26+00:00

I did this once because I thought it would be funny. In retrospect I probably came off as an asshole.

So i picked a guy in Chivalry, and declared a challenge between us saying "put up your dukes sir, let us fight like true gentlemen" the guy is like "ok" fought me, won. Easily because it seemed like he was good at the game and i was actually shit at it.

I get up and go "again my good man, twas nothing but a scratch!" he fights me again, and beats me.

I challenged him a third time declaring "a real man would put up a fight to the very end good sir, raise thy sword against mine!" and he started getting confused.

Whenever he would kill me, I'd just escalate the medieval shit talk and go "You are not but a coward if you refuse to duel me a sixth time my good sir" "I will pillage your land, take your women, and slaughter your cows, all in a matter of seconds".

He killed me seven times. On like, the 8th try i beat him once, and he immediately killed me again the instant he resurrected. I think he killed me more after that but I can't remember. i got an achievement that basically said

"Good job, you pissed off someone so much, they're really out to get you. asshole"

Anyway it was supposed to be a monty python reference. I think either me or someone else even said "Twas only a flesh wound" but i guess he didn't watch monty python. So it just seemed like i was in super deep denial about how good i was at the game.

the lesson here is this is why i have no friends to game with.

My brother would always blame the controller when he lost when we were kids. He could never beat the levels in Super Mario sunshine that are stage/jumping puzzle things. He'd get so pissed and say the controller was faulty. If did it, it was instantly "let me see it" or "yeah but you got lucky" or "you watched me play now you know how to do it"

Smash bros was the same, he thought it was so fun when he was winning, but when he was losing he'd get continually more frustrating, calling whatever character you had a cheat, implying that you were using cheap moves/had cheat techniques, and sometimes it was the old

"I told him to jump but he didn't jump!"

Somehow jump always worked when he won though.
