What painkillers do you have. Tramadol is one down from Morphine. You could go to 60mg of Codeine if nothing else in.

Oramorph is oral morphine. The slow release tablets are good. Short term, you shouldn't be too bunged up.
After my first op' went pear shaped I had a blood clot on the kidney (or liver....can't remember). quadruple morphine didn't touch it. They tried a variety of drugs and what sorted it was a mixture of Paracetamol & Buscopan. That has worked for me until now but had no affect on this one.
Coedine.
Panadol Max strength
Solpandiene Max strength.
Then a mix of 2 x paracetemol plus Buscopan (they have told me I can do this safely)

Well, what do you know. Someone is going through a similar thing that I went through after my Bone Marrow transplant. I had BK virus which is common after a bone marrow transplant, where the virus causes the bladder to shed cells so they stick a catheter up into your bladder and fill it with water so the clots come out.
I can only imaging the pain and discomfort that you are in and my thoughts go out to you. I would have spasms every few hours which were caused by my body trying to pee, which of course you can't. I had the catheter twice over a 6 month period for approximately 2/3 weeks at a time. Although very very painful I didn't have any pain killers during this time.
Hang in there and GWS.

My friend diagnosed with this last August had op in January has just refused this treatment, but then he has issues mainly from a spinal injury, type 1 diabetes, he is pretty much wheelchair bound, further ops like bladder removal are not likely as there is a high risk he wouldn't survive the aesthetic. Sorry its not much help, I wish you well with any treatment and hope you can find a solution.
A difficult choice for your friend. I wish him all the best...........please tell him that would you. As I said (and the nurse repeated) over 50% of people cannot complete the course and some react badly to the 1st treatment and go no further. I consider myself one of the fortunate ones.........although I didn't think that for 4 weeks after the bad reaction.

Seems he has cancer on the pelvis as well on both sides, he doesn't want the treatment, I suspect I know where its going, his quality of live is very poor housebound and pretty much stuck in a wheelchair, he can't have certain operations due to his heart not being able to cope
very very sad.........I really do wish him all the best.

I didn't realise you were recovering from this Dave when I met you. Keep at the treatment if you can. Best wishes.
