I went to a different doctor office last week & they had a culture done on my urine. They were supposed to call me by Tuesday this week & didn't so I called them. I found out that I do NOT have a UTI... .horray!!!
I had the burning a few days ago but that's really it. It's been a while since I took the last set of meds. Probably about a month or so ago. I should hear something back between tomorrow & Tuesday, hopefully not tomorrow cuz if I do they said it won't be the best news. Thanks! I'll keep you posted.
Do you still I have the UTI symptoms like burning, urgency, frequency? It could just be your body trying to recover from the medicines. A culture will tell you for sure if you have an UTI. Let us know
I went to the doc a few hours ago. They said I may or may not have a UTI. I am waiting on the cultures to come back. They said if I hear something tomorrow then it won't be great news but if they call me Monday or Tuesday that the news will be better. I am just hoping this infection has went away. I just feel tired all the time & every couple days something hurts. I dunno if this is my body after the m/c or the infection. I have also been sick feeling lately especially a lot of the time that I eat.
I have medical insurance so I would think it would be covered. I'm going to go to the doc today to get another medication & to see if they can prescribe that to me. However, I'm not sure if it will be covered by my insurance or not. I just go to the ER here if I have problems because I don't have a primary care doctor since my medical card is about to expire since I'm no longer PG. Thanks.
cipro is a prescription that comes in liquid form, but liquid also tends to cost more. Did you explain the situation to the doctor, because an UTI could lead to a kidney infection when it isn't treated. I too have trouble swallowing pills I tend to crush them (once I check to make sure it is allowed) and put them in pudding. It helps lessen the nasty taste. Hope this helps.
