Okay so on Thursday I went to the doctors to get a bladder problem seen to that I've been having on and off for almost 2 months now and had a suspected UTI as I had "traces" of an infection in a dipstick I had done at Urgent Care.
I've had 4 courses of different antibiotics none of which have helped, or they have but the symptoms have come back.
The doctor did another dipstick and said there was "something" there but she was going to send it to the lab to get it examined further.
She then asked me to do a swab test and when I asked why she said to check for "bugs". I'm going to guess if she was testing for STD's she'd tell me, I'm really scared now that it's an STD I just can't stop thinking how I'd tell my boyfriend if we had one or how I'd re act I'm just panicking.
She gave me some cream in case it was thrush as I did say I've had a tiny bit of itchiness.
Would my doctor have told me if she was checking for STD's? She just said it was "bugs" she was checking for. What does that mean? :(
