Hi I have been having a lot of abdominal pain. I do have endometriosis, cysts on ovaries, and had half of my right ovary removed and part of my right tube but this pain seems to be more related to my bladder. I had a UA done and it was normal all except my specific gravity was low and the culture only showed insignificant growth. Also I guess I should mention that I also am B12 def and high folate (not sure if this plays anything into this). I do void quite often and there is a lot of pain that is relieved by voiding. It is not all the time but can last for a week to a few weeks and then I feel better until it happens all over again. My Drs dont seem to think anything of it. They just say everything is normal
Hi. Thanks for your query. After reading your history carefully about pain in abdomen and frequency of urination I would suggest you the following. Endometriosis need an active treatment with the help of medicines. The recrudesce can be the reason for the recurrent pains. IF possible it is better to get another diagnostic laparoscopy to see if further surgery can help you. Another issue of frequency of micturition but negative urine tests can be due to stress and anxiety. Urological evaluation including urethrocystoscopy and flowery during the attack can help a diagnosis and an anxiolytic may be tried. Culture of the urine for anaerobic bacteria and tuberculosis can give a hint.
