Treatment
« on: March 07, 2015, 06:35:33 PM »

I've had a number of treatments advised but none successfully. Nearly 5 years on and I still suffer from interminable night sweats with bladder frequency almost on an hourly basis. I've had several treatments advised but all without success. Anyone got any other ideas or anything I can suggest to my GP. I'm currently waiting on a specialist appointment. :(

Hi and welcome Bernadette Kelly
Can you tell us a bit more so we can support you better.  I assume it is 5 years since your last period? How old are you now? What treatments have been tried or suggested?  Have you tried HRT?
Do read up all the info on this site to get really clued up and ask questions or for feed back on anything.

Hi Bernadette - welcome to the forum.

HRT was the only thing that fixed my night sweats and made my bladder much more comfortable too. As Dancinggirl suggests have a good look around the site and ask anything you want to. You will find lots of help and advice on here.

 :welcomemm: …….. bladder issues can be vaginal atrophy - dryness + wanting to wee = irritation and many GPs treat with antibiotic therapy ……. how it may be worth while trying treatment specifically aimed at VA.  If your GP wants a urine sample do insist that it is sent to a Lab.!

Browse round.  What treatments have you tried …….. pull down the menus from the top of screen and you'll see plenty of suggestions.
