I was diagnose with cystic UTI within the past few days, my symptoms were severe lower abdominal pain on my right side, burning and not urinating a lot and a little bit of blood in my urine. I used to get UTIs all the time when I was younger and then for a while I stopped getting them frequently. For the last year I've had two, i do use a catheter and I know that that is one reason why I do get them, I just had my first child in Feb 2007 and had a bad UTI when I was pregnant. I drink 3 eight ounces of cranberry juices a day. My first question is: What are ways to prevent from getting UTIs? Secondly, why am I having stomach pains and not back pain? I'm taking medicines when will my stomach pain end?

For close to a week now, I have had bad stomach pains-sharp at times, and also pain in my back.  It hurts pretty bad, and I have had to pee pretty frequently the past two days, but it doesn't hurt when I go.  What do you think this would be?
