Pyridium® is indicated for the symptomatic relief of pain, burning, urgency, frequency and other discomforts arising from irritation of the lower urinary tract mucosa caused by infection, trauma, surgery, endoscopic procedures, or the passage of sounds or catheters. The use of Phenazopyridine Hydrochloride for relief of symptoms should not delay definitive diagnosis and treatment of causative conditions. Because it provides only symptomatic relief, prompt appropriate treatment of the cause of pain must be instituted and Phenazopyridine Hydrochloride should be discontinued when symptoms are controlled.

The analgesic action may reduce or eliminate the need for systemic analgesics or narcotics. It is, however, compatible with antibacterial therapy and can help to relieve pain and discomfort during the interval before antibacterial therapy controls the infection. Treatment of a urinary tract infection with Phenazopyridine Hydrochloride should not exceed 2 days because there is a lack of evidence that the combined administration of Phenazopyridine Hydrochloride and an antibacterial provides greater benefit than administration of the antibacterial alone after 2 days.

you have to wonder why the damn doc didn't give this to you in the first damn place. duh.

I'm waiting for the nurse to call back.

I remember that from my last procedure. It was such a joy to pee normally again.

Call your doc and get thee some! It's not a pain killer so there should be NO problem with him giving you the rx over the phone. It will make this pain stop instantly.
I have some prescription Urelle, which turns my pee blue and is supposed to help ease urinary discomfort symptoms, but it doesn't touch this.

On the one hand I do know that vinegar is a cure for everything, but I'm not sure how to apply it to this situation.

They gave me Urelle after the last procedure but I'm not sure it does anything. I see people debating pyridium vs. urelle on pee problem sites.

I can vouch for the effectiveness of Azo-Standard. No pain at all.

I'm glad to see you're feeling better then Flint. In fact, maybe it's almost like you can't remember how much it hurt. Kinda like childbirth I suspect.
