I had a urine test recently which was clear although this was was on the final day of the antibiotics and I wonder if this can be definitive or do I really need to test after I have completed the course?
Part of me hopes I still have the UTI as this would explain the symptoms but I reckon that realistically the antibiotics should have cleared it up.
I do have an appointment with a urologist but this is not for another two weeks and its just freaking me out as to what this could be!!
Ask your doctor if they did a sensitivity test when they did the urine testing. That will let them know what medication is best for that particular infection.
If you are still symptomatic, return to your doctor. Your tests for stds were negative - what else could it be?
The strep was apparently sensitive to amoxycillin and from the test result today the infection has cleared but as I said I'm still experiencing symptoms
Hopefully the urologist can shed some light but its driving me crazy!
If both are fine, then see a urologist.

In the meantime I am wondering if this was as a result of the incident above and is this something I could pass on to others?

Streptococcus was found in my urine.
Amoxycillin was prescribed however unfortunately I am still experiencing the same symptoms, burning penis after urinating (which actually persists for a period of time afterwards)

All of these symptoms have been present for about two months now!
