Question: Good afternoon, I am a 46 year old female, whom went to the ER in Feb '13 with a strange discharge from my urethra, and extreme abdominal swelling and pain. No fever. Due to my past surgical medical history, there was concern of a fistula. My MRI showed free flowing fluids, and urine showed infection. In 1995 I had an emergency cesarean birth, of a 23 week, 500 gram baby girl (whom is doing fine now), in post op, my uterus prolapsed and my heart failed, needless to say, the shoved my uterus back in, and then opened me up and did a partial hysterectomy. In the year 2001, after a year of hospital visits for similar pain to most recently, it was determine that scare tissue had taken over my XXXXXXX area, and get this a tubal pregnancy. Things have been challenging, and this is why I went to the hospital in feb of 2013. I was given medicine, a basic antibiotic, for 14 days, did not help, they put me on a stronger penicillin, for 14 more days, this did not help. The doctor suggested I see a uro/gyn doc, whom said there was nothing he could do, no insurance, but recommended I find a scalped surgeon, then that doc prescribed a super strong med METRONIDAZOLE 500 MG 3 times a day. this medicine cured the problem, but made me behave differently. I have been on the medicine since April, and recently, in May, they dropped it to half a pill, three times a day. I also have started taking phentermine at 30mg. Needles to say, I am a wreck, I am loosing my mind, and pushing people away, my husband is done with me, and has moved out. I am losing my mind, I have no idea whom I am right now. I hate my self, feel so gross, if I stop taking this med, I get the yucky stuff back, if I don't stop, I am going to loss everyone in my life

thank you, I do not feel I made my point properly. If I do not take the meds, within days the pain and mucus comes back. There seems to be free flowing fluids, that need to come out somewhere, hence the fistula concern, the puss needs to escape. this seems to be the only med that keeps it at bay.
I also do not see how going to physical therapy will help, could you please explain? I can see how exercise, and stretching can always help a person, but I am going nuts, would you know if there is a huge problem with just going off cold XXXXXXX mentally.
