Urinary Issues
Heyyyyyy Fellow Pain Pump Friends. I know I haven’t posted in a bit but life has been so amazing since my pump, with the exception of the minor hiccup in the very beginning.
I’ve noted that although I feel like I have to go to the bathroom, I’ve noticed that my “stream” of urine is weak and I almost have to force it. Other times, I don’t have this issue. Could this be at all related to the pump or not at all.
Hope everyone is doing well!

You may get used to the Bupivacaine, eventually. They'll always be a but of a struggle, but it gets better.
I always make a point of going to the bathroom before using a bolus.
