Worrying myself sick....pleeez HELP!

[Guest guest]

Hello to everyone out there. I have been very concerned about my

condition lately, mostly because of a lack of information, not

knowing what my prognosis is, etc. I know a lot of my specific

questions can only be answered by my doctor (who i will be seeing

soon), but maybe you guys could help me out a bit as well. First of

all, does anyone else experience pretty well constant gross

hematuria, instead of it coming more in spurts? Is this normal? And

also I've noticed in my own experience that if i drink alot of fluids

my urine stays pretty clear for the most part, but tends to get worse

when i'm really stressed out...is this similar to anyone else's

situation? And one more question...my doctor originally told me i

had a good prognosis...well what is that exactly for Berger's

Disease? Does it ever go into remission and stay in remission, or

can it be controlled and prevented from getting worse? Or is it just

a matter of time before we are all doomed? Sorry about all the

questions, I'm fairly new to all of this, and worried about my future

especially now as i'm looking into post-secondary education and don't

even know where i'll be at in a few years time. Thank you for your

help, and i would really appreciate any responses or advice from you.
