UTI won't go away

I would always be very wary of relying on the manufactures own blurb about the effectiveness of any remedies produced by food supplement manfacturers.
Do try looking up any such product on an independent website.

Thanks everyone. Luckygirl he did send sample off for analysis and said first ABS I had were right for the type of infection. But then he went on to prescribe these different ones. It's very hard to get anything out of him but the bare minimum of conversation and it makes me nervous so didn't feel able to ask why he couldn't just have prescribed more of the first lot - which cleared things up within hours. It was a few days after I'd finished the course that it came back with a vengence

Now read your link shysal!

Cranbury juice is said to help too.

By the way, cheaper versions on Ebay.

There are a few fellow sufferers on GN, I hope they will be along soon. One of them recommended the following -

I tried it once, but I may have got over the infection without, so cannot comment.

Has the GP sent a sample away for analysis so that the antibiotic can be tailored to the bug?

My sister-in-law suffered with this problem for years, my husband read on the internet that lemon juice in water every day would help. It did help my sister in law. I think she used the juice of half a lemon a day in water. Worth a try. Also no bubble baths or soap in your "special places" Haha, reminds me what my mam used to call her vagina, "her secret place"

Thanks ninathenana I will go back. GP had sent a sample to check for type of bacteria and said first ABS were suitable. Not sure why he changed them instead of prescribing more of same. But he's like Doc Martin - very clinical and a bit grumpy. Hoping to see lady doctor next time.

Definitely go back to your GP as the current antibiotics aren't working and obviously don't suit you. Maybe ask the GP to test for the most suitable ones.
A friends DD had three courses of different antibiotics before her UTI cleared.

Thanks janeainsworth. I have been drinking loads of water - which obviously makes me want to wee and I've been going constantly this morning. Hate going to GP but sure the first antibiotics were better and I just needed them for longer. No side effects either.

I am real worrier about health matters so the sooner it's gone, the better. Not used to getting UTIs either so all new to me.

Go back to your GP, Sillyoldbird.
Drink plenty of water too.
