Hi All --
I am another refugee from AZ, though I haven't needed to post there for years. I've actually been doing remarkable well for a long while, despite facing some issues that would have historically caused great anxiety. However, I've recently gotten stuck on a worry I can't seem to shake.
I am wondering about bubbles in urine, something triggered by a friend's kidney cancer diagnosis (I am 46, she is the same age). I know men notice this because they pee from a higher distance and with greater force, but how common is it for women? The bubbles I am noticing are not excessive and not every time -- when I see them, they look like small areas of small white bubbles. They mostly dissipate quickly, but some areas do not dissipate. To what extent are bubbles normal (for women) and when should they be seen as worrisome? My kind husband demonstrated that he also has bubbles -- far more than I do -- which do not dissipate and has had them his entire life.
I am due for a routine physical soon and will be calling to make that appointment --- but I'm making myself crazy in the meantime.
Thanks!!
