The urinary problems could be PMR which can lead to irritable bladder syndrome - or are you on calcium supplements? If you don't drink enough and your urine gets very concentrated it can lead to calcium grit forming and that can irritate your bladder. Happens to me if we are travelling and I don't have my x cups of tea through the day!

Great to have good news. It's been lacking recently.

Nowadays I dilute some tea with tap water and add a bit of lemon juice - I really enjoy it now, wasn't so keen at first. The second large pot of tea in the morning is only about half used so I put about a third of a mug tea, top up with water and lemon juice. No sugar. Sometimes in summer I drink it cold or lukewarm. In winter I heat it for a minute or two in the microwave. I drink at least 8 mugs a day...

I had one in Germany - no pain relief which was normal there and it was OK, just pinched a bit but nothing like period pain, one in the UK where I again had no pain relief out of choice having not had any the first time - the nurses were standing with their legs crossed! The third was here in Italy, again no pain relief.
Don't worry - in the UK it isn't normal to have no analgesia but it was quicker to get it done since I was already there and it would have meant waiting for an anaesthetist who was busy elsewhere. Entirely my choice!!!!
