This is so crazy- I have the same exact symptoms and I went to 3 doctors this week. One last Saturday at walk in clinic- took CiproCipro Cipro hc Cipro i.v. Cipro xr 4 days- no help actually yhe pain went away for two days and CAME BACK while I was still on CiproCipro Cipro hc Cipro i.v. Cipro xr- Next my PA put me on LevaquinLevaquin Levaquin leva-pak 3 days, then went back after littleLittle noses decongestant Little tummys relief to see the MD and I was told to go to the ER yesterday and get a huge dose of IV antibiotics. We did cbc, Urinalysis even a ct scan to check for stones- all negative- no infection whatsoever......
I ve been crazy with discomfort- it feels as if there is a Qtip UP my urethra and a melon in my bladder pushing downwards,,,they asked me how bad the pain was- well it's not like Im being crucified or anything- I give that a 10 - so I said a "5" on the pain scale.
That nutty doc refused to give me IV antibiotics even though my GP called him and told him to......and sent me home with a pain shot that "will last 4 hours" for my back pain--- he wasnt even listening to me- my back pain is worse in the AM and PM- I have pain in my BLADDER. Ive had sciatica for 17 years- I can deal with back pain. Told me to go ahead and see a urologist if I wanted to but there is nothing wrong-MAYBE a prolapsed bladder.....
So the only thing today that has helped even for a few minutes:
Heating pad
Husband went and bought me cornsilk tea from the health food store
Hot bath
Azo Standard
I have had yeast infections that feel exactly like UTI's - did they treat you with Diflucan or topical cream?
Write me a note if youd like
