This is my first time posting so bear with me!
I have suffered from HA for many years I think it started when my youngest daughter was born and has additional needs. She relies heavily on me to help her with all aspects of life, she'll always live with us and I'm terrified I won't be around for her.
Three weeks ago I went to A&E feeling really ill...it transpired I had a UTI that was symptomless. I was given a weeks antibiotics. A week later urine clear of bugs but still microscopic traces of blood. The same again a week later, and again 4 days later but my period was due. It's now 4days after my period has finished and I need to do another sample. The doc was very kind and understood my anxiety. He said if this one wasn't clear he'd refer me for a scan and cystoscopy. I'm so scared to do it. I have since bought (stupidly I know) self dipstick tests which all (with my very untrained eye) still say blood.
I feel completely lost and can't concentrate on anything. Any advice would be great. Thanks for listening.
