Default Panic is setting in!

Ok heres the deal,
Here it is in a nut shell,for about the past 5 days I have been making pee pee almost 5 times more than usual, I am talking about twice an hour or more, it seems that whatever I drink goes right through me and yesterday it had an effect on me that scared the s**t out of me and lead me to post this to look for advise. Yesterday during an adult league baseball game that I play in, I took off running for a flyball and it felt like both my quad muscles exploded, along with a cramping and painful knot in my right butt cheek,,,lol I thought it was dehydration but after hours of drinking H2o no change even now I am still in pain. Anyone have a take on this? I have to figure this out.

Thanks for the ear

Rick

Ok, call your doctor -- you may have messed up some of your electrolytes. Good luck!

Well once again I am in transition with my friggin health insurance so I am waiting for my new medical card so I can make an appointment, and as far as my picture, I cant seem to find the time to reduce a pic that fits, maybe I will just use a pic of Brad Pitt,, lol anyway thanks for the advice, I have a feeling I may have developed diabetes, shoot I hope not, anyway for all those interisted baby Olie is doing fine, he has already doubled his birth weight and he is only 5 months old, he actually has hazel eyes unlike his mother who has dukie brown,,,lol mine are kinda hazel, and he is now 25 inches long,, still bald though, Laine is fine and little Bobby has just started kindergarden and is loving it.

could be a bladder infection. I am prone to them and found shortly post op I did not drink enough water and got a month long infection. Then I drank and peed all the time till I got better.

See how you do in a day and if you have pain, fever or pressure, go to the doc, even if you have to pay out of pocket.

Rick,

You don't need your new insurance card to make an appointment with your new PCP! They've got you on their list and can look in the computer, if they turn you down because of that, call your insurance company!
Get your buns in there NOW! In the mean time, get some AZO Standard and drink copious amounts of water, not tea or crystal light or anything else, you can drink cranberry juice if you're having burning on urination, but hit water bottle dude!

Love and big hugs to you and Laine both and the boys too of course!!

Feel better!!!

Both diabetes and bladder infection are likely suspects. Do you feel heaviness and discomfort in your bladder, or do you feel like you've been beaten with a bag of nickels?

I agree that your electrolytes are most likely out of whack, whatever the cause. That frequently causes those impressive muscle cramps. Can you have gatorade or pedialyte? I wish they made a sugar free version. I just know if I don't drink enough water my legs scream until I put a quart of gatorade into me.

But you definitely need to see your PCP ASAP. Good luck!
