urgency after surgery

Hi Everyone... . I just had the micropouch done with Dr. Taylor at the Cori center. Since I came home on Thursday...I have been having problems at night. Everynight I wake about three times feeling the need to go to the bathroom. When I finally can get myself up....I have to urinate soooo bad I can hardly make it to the bathroom. If it were a bowel movement I could see (which actually acouple have been too) but they did not do anything to my bladder! I am obviously not drinking while I am sleeping. I dont know where all the urine is comming from! and does it last?

Call your doctor you could have a uti or not but best to call to put your mind at ease.

Thanks Susan.. I thought about that....but it is only this way a night. During the day I am fine?!??!?!?

They give you a TON of IV fluids. I swear to you, when I had my TT done a month ago, about 3 days after surgery I started peeing every hour on the hour for two days. I was literally up every hour ALL NIGHT LONG. I was so tired from being up all night. I could not go anywhere for days as the peeing was constant. They told me in the hospital that this would happen. I just never imagined it would be to that extreme. It will go away in a couple of days. It is a drag though. I actually peed on myself a couple of times. Ugh! Terri

Hello AMY, WELCOME TO THE LOSER SIDE . I THINK IT'S JUST FROM YOUR IV . BUT LIKE EVERYONE ELSE SAID PLEASE CALL YOUR DOCTOR. OR IT WILL DRIVE YOU CRAZY. GOOD LUCK SUE
