After a bad night last night with worry and water works I decided to go back to the Drs. My normal lady Dr was off so saw another lady Dr...........
Walked into her room and burst out crying. I explained my problems. Blood in wee by dipstick once, back ache, sore tummy, burning when weeing, and my bits seem to feel sore. 10 days ago it wee analysis came back from the lab with no blood but with bug growth. I was given amoxycillin, it eased while on that but then came back last Friday. She dipped my new sample and said nothing on the dip-strip but would send it off. I told her I was getting no sleep from worry....... by now I was getting really tearful.
She examined my tummy and back. She said she sees numerous ladies every day with the same symptoms. She said its more common for a lady to get a UTI than to not get one and some are stubborn and need more antibiotics. She said that being anxious and stressed makes symptoms worse and makes it harder to fight them. She said she understand my concerns and can't reassure me enough. She gave me a week of antibiotics and will phone once lab results are back. She has also put me back on citalopram and told me to drink lots of water and to go back if I am ever concerned.
I have decided no googling tonight. I went shopping instead and got some cranberry tablets...............
