I saw Dr. E.A. Heldeweg in urologic department.Old school urology. This doctor is not at all interested in your problem. The answer is ready without going in depth into problem ( recurrent cystitis after intercourse) - antibiotics. After the cystoscopie it was me telling the urologist about potential risks of a cystitis provoked by this exam. As a result - a prescription of amoxicilline for 10 days. Scandalous. This antibiotic would not only kill the germs in the bladder but also the rest of bacterial flore in my body, especially taken for such a long time! Recurrent cystitis might also come from gynaecological problems ( vagina flore) or a disballance within intestinal flore. But the urologist in this centre cares less about any possibilities and non antibiotic solutions. He had his answer that it would be too hard to find the reason of my issues before even conducting the exams (x-Ray of abdomen, ultrason of kidneys and bladder + cystoscopie). This doctor dumbly follows the protocol, didn't seem at all to be implied and genuinely interested by the patient and apparently has no interest in finding a real solution. In France I would definitely be advised at least some homeopathic treatment to see if it works, an advice to consult the gynaecologist or other. All the pain and time for recurrent use of antibiotics. That's what I wanted to avoid coming here to consult. "I don't care" and non personalised approach of dr. Heldeweg are deeply frustrating. And this ease of using antibiotics (penicillins) not at all conceived especially for bladder problems for a long period of time without even mentioning the use of probiotics after the treatment .... Medically criminal.
