Shocked Another exacerbation?? I don't get it...

Hey everyone... Ok, got a situation going on here... I really suck at understanding what is a relapse and what is not...

On April 7th, I woke up and was having dizzy spells... the kind you get when you have a fever... like the all over body chills dizzy spells... (best way I can describe it..) but no fever... My fiance went to the doctors that day and got prednisone for something but did not want to take it... I know that steroids bring bad things in the long run so I didn't want to take them either. Then the next day I woke up and was so dizzy I couldn't take it... So I started taking them...

Then about a day after that I woke up to my feet tingling/buzzing more than usual... Didn't think much of it... Next day it was worse...

All day yesterday I was having trouble peeing (not a new thing for me either) just dribble dribble here and dribble dribble there... never got that great satisfaction pee....

I decided I would get in the shower and go to bed... Before the shower I sat down on the toilet to try and go pee again... this time I pushed.. Ended up sending my bladder into what I think was a severe spasm... managed to get in the shower.. by the time I was done I had to wrap myself in a towel and call for the fiance...

He came in and had to walk me to the bed. I was in so much pain I couldn't stand it. I took some AZO hoping that would help.... Luckily I have had a problem with incontinence in the past so I keep those pull up underwear around for bad days...

I put one of those on and laid down in the bed... would drift off to sleep still in pain and wake up and have to go pee... as soon as I would stand up it would come out.. no control and still horrible pain... Went to the bathroom at least 5 times in an hour.. still never getting a satisfying elimination of pee... and still pain...

Woke up this morning and the bladder feels ok... but my legs are really nasty feeling and it is up to mid-calf...

So... have any of you ever had horrible bladder pains? Should I have went to the ER?? Do you all think Im in another flare??

Its so confusing!!...
