help me get rid of this UTI

[krysalyss]

When I was pregnant I also had a nasty UTI which would NOT go away. I was doing everything, loads of water, cranberry juice, and taking ural (wee alkaliser). I ended up on 3 different types of antibiotics, only the last one worked. Being pregnant there were only certain things I could take, and because it wouldn't go away, I went back to the doctor and made them check WHAT bacteria it was so that the doctors could give me a drug that would actually help! Some bacteria isn't killed by the drug they usually give for UTI's apparently, so if it isn't going away, and you've been trying loads of things to help, then I say head back to the doc and ask them to send off a sample to pinpoint the bateria and kill it with the right (pregnancy friendly) drugs!

Same thing happened with me. They probably have you on the wrong ABs. If they took urine then they should have cultured it so call up and check (or get your dr to do it). You would think that if they had given you the wrong ABs at the beginning then they would call you but it doesn't always happen. Hope you can get it sorted ASAP.

You can get dried cranberries as well which I'm sure would help too.

Hope it is easing off for you now.
