Woman Had an Overactive Bladder misdiagnois with Urethral Stricture

This is for ladies preferably.  Women we have to be very careful with our Bladder Conditions.  Are there any women who have a overactive bladder, or any type of urges, frequency, leaking who may have had a surgery and it went totally wrong.  There is a condition called, "Urethral Stricture" that is common in men and RARE in women.  I had an Overactive Bladder but was misdiagnois with a condition called "Urethral Stricture".  Urethral Stricture ois what the doctor said I had an Blockage aka as Bladder OUtlet Obstruction.  This means that the Dr. said my going to the bathroom a lot was a result of me not going normally.  In urethral stricture most people pee, void, or has what called a slow stream.  This means they are unable to pee properly, only a little is coming out at a time.  At the time that I was being tested I did not know anything about Urethral Stricture until I had the surgery and ended up completetly and Totalling Incontinent.  I mean Incontinent where as I was unable to pee any kind of way on my own.  I had nO bladder control, like someone who is living in pampers everyday w24 hours per day for the reason that they have no bladder control.  This is what happen to me after this misdiagnois.  The doctor claim my URGENCY, FREQUENCY was Retention...meaning, I was peeing a lot because my pee could not come out.  NOw listen careful, if you are one that this is happening to, that you are unable to pee it comes out slowly get help.  But, we must not allow doctors to lie on us manipulate us and write down symptoms we do not have.  If you have urge, please read up on it, make sure the doctor is not saying one thing to you and diagnoising you for something totally different and then not telling you the risk factor is Incontinency.  The doctor has power where he can damage us then say we would ended up like this anyway.  No, we have a right to live with our difficultiies, there is medication that can help us.  There are too many bladder disorders that mimic others and we must know for sure that you and your doctors are communicating with each other with full understanding and that he is truly listening to you and being honest.  Look all your symptoms. email me. This is not to scare anyone but to talk openly about bladder and pelvic disorders.. It's time that we talk. and talk loud because I was one who was taken advantage of and I wish I had this site when I was told i had a blockage, I didn't find out about urethral stricture until it was over.  I was told after my misfortune that I was misdiagnois and this led me to start a program, advocacy to tell others so the same mistake doen't happen to you.  God Bless, research,
