Has anyone experienced a bladder fistula? If so, could you please tell me what your symptoms were and how it was treated....meds or surgically?
Thanks!
Thanks!

Well that's not good that you're 'getting' to experience something new in life. Other than that, how has your health been?

Hi! Other than recurring bowel obstructions I have been doing pretty well. Just a little worried that I may now have a bladder fistula which is scaring me tremendously! I hate the thought of more surgery, going back to the bag or having a urinary catheter for weeks on end. I'm really scared to even see the dr. Hoping I could get some info thru here first. Thanks for responding! I hope you are doing well, too!
The symptoms of a bladder fistula are repeated bladder infections and passage of gas from the bladder/urethra. A CT might reveal it.

Yep, been experiencing those symptoms off and on. I had a bowel obstruction about 2 weeks ago and they did a CT for that. Wonder why it didn't show up on th CT?
