i am a 47 yr old female who lives in a 3rd world country. after months of faint but persistent rlq pain i was diagosed with urinary tract infection caused by e coli and colitis with swelling and thickening of the sigmoid colon. there was mucus found in the stool after a treatment of metronidazole and then a treatment of cipro was given and the stool report came out clean but the pain has stayed. then i was treated with a 2nd anti parasite and still the same pain...???
