Back with the utination problems today! Daughter 4.7y was diagnosed 2 weeks ago with vaginal strep (confirmed by swabs) and prescribed amoxicillin. We took the course completely and things seemed to clear up very well. Today I've taken her back to the doctors when she woke with green discharge again, more swabs taken and another course of amoxicillin prescribed. School haven't allowed her in today and think she is best with me as she has not passed urine since 6 last night! She is desperate, dancing around but petrified to allow urine to flow because of stinging pain 'down there' it's very red and irritated, I completely understand her fears. I've tried to calm her, reassure her, hold cold tissue while she wees. Any tips? I'm really frustrated were back to this, 20 hours with no urination is way too long!

I have considered that but at the same time don't want her needing to go in the bath for every wee. She is complaining of pain sitting in her regular baths, she doesn't have any products in there because of her skin conditions so it's not that. Will try shower method.

She has now been, without any help but a lot of encouragement and praise! Its so difficult to see them like this, I get in a panic with the withholding. Now to school or not to school tomorrow, will have to see how she gets on with needing the toilet next time. I really don't want her feeling uncomfortable at school. Shame though today was the first day she actually really wanted to go, she's found it really tough to settle!!!


Thank you all xxx

      Anyone experiencing even greater issues securing a GP appointment with Tessa Jowell GP practice?

      By COYS1961 · Posted

      I hope it's ok to use this thread to ask for advice on a separate issue in relation to TJ Medical Practice. A friend of mine who is registered there has recently been diagnosed with a serious long-term condition. He has been struggling to find a good GP at the practice since the departure of Dr Love and I said I would try to find out which of the remaining GPs other patients have found most capable and sympathetic - particularly for the scenario of overseeing ongoing care for a long-term progressive illness. Is there any particular GP that people would recommend?  Very many thanks.

      Dulwich Gail's bakery will open on Xmas Day in "shameful" move

      By spark67 · Posted

      I,m not a fan of Gales; but a lot of food serving premises open on Xmas day , so not unusual, worked in catering for nearly 40 years and staff usually get extra pay… My niece who is in her last year of college & wants to go travelling next summer, is waitressing in a restaurant near where she lives on Xmas day & Boxing Day for £20 per hour to boost her travelling fund. Back in the day I worked New Year’s Day 2000, & had my pay bumped to £50 per hour, happy days (wasn’t forced I volunteered)

      Hardly strange; arcane perhaps. It used to be a common practice in many towns for the swings, roundabouts etc in parks to be chained up by the council on Sundays, so that they didn’t provide a source of reckless pleasure on the sabbath. The outrage that a cake shop should open on Christmas Day reminded me of this. The policy had pretty much died out in England and Wales by the 70’s but is still in force in parts of the Highlands and Islands of Scotland.

      I would be interested to learn if Gail's hike their prices on Christmas day. I don't go to Gail's (as I prefer Christophers on HM Lane) but if anyone does go and detects a bit of price gouging, please let us all know.
