yes! i agree keep after this infection! a uti can quickly turn to a bladder infection then a kidney infection, like what happened to me! i peed blood with chunks of my bladder walls coming out! nothing quite like peeing chunks of skin, its an interesting sensation! not to scare you, but it can get bad if you neglect it- i didn’t know any better, i was just a kid and scared to tell my parents. the key is nipping it in the bud, drinking like crazy, watching your sugar intake and taking it easy!
I would like to think there is a TMI limit here somewhere…

i read this first, then i read tf’s post.
you have to believe me it is funny when you read this post without having seen the others.Snap….Nah, medical stuff is always fun.
SPark, I get UTI’s all the time. If you power down 100% Cranberry juice and cram down scads of cranberry pills, PLUS as much water as your stomach can hold, it should clear up. Drink and drink and drink, you should need to pee every 20 minutes for a few hours. I fyou mix the cranverry juice with a little cocktail, it will ease the tartness of the juice.
I would avoid antibiotics unless you really really need them. The more meds you take, the harder it gets to clear future UTI’s. I’ve killed at least 4 infections with the cranberry method. :> Good luck!
lol sorry snap! i could spoken of many worse things… but i know better! hey wait til you get married and have a kid, then you’ll get the TMI !! will you help with the delivery of your child? hee hee!! catch papa snap!!! anyhoo, sorry bout that, but my main concern was for spark, so she doesn’t get worse and quickly finds her way to feeling better. things can go down hill fast and get quite serious with that; i gave the first hand commentary so she knew how awful it can get, and to take getting care seriously. 🙂 yummas! i love pink lemonade!
Let’s clarify. I have no issue with TMI, but I was mearly pointing out the general idea that is a wide open public forum.
You can talk dirty with me anyday.
Yeah, overdoing antibiotics is never a good idea, although sometimes they’re necessary. I’ve got nettle tea, and cranberry juice, and craberry pills too now, so I’m all set to dose myself up.
Thank heavens, because it’s gone from “gee, that doesn’t feel good” to “aieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!” when I pee now. *winces*
oh poor you spark! eeeeeeeeeeeeeee! my gosh i remember how awful that was when i got those! that sensation makes you nuts, hard to sleep etc. ohhhhhhhh! well, i hope you feel some improvement in the morning. just drink like crazy and rest as much as you can- the more moving around you do the more you will irritate already irritated tissues. also, try to wait to go to the bathroom til like 20, 30 or 40 minute increments as opposed to every 5- if you can that is- because it lends to a more effective flushing of the system, if you know what i mean. its hard to wait, but just gradually push the time you go back minute by minute and you should see that it helps, but don’t make your self suffer.
no offense taken or made snap- its all good, i’m just busting your chops. 🙂 you’re right, we’re letting it all hang out in the breeze here big picture wise, lol…perhaps we need a feminine health page to wrangle all the funky stuff together in one place! lol! it would be better for reference too if someone ever gets in a similar situation or has something helpful to add or doesn’t want to read about yukkies. hmmmmmmmmm…

I have not read all the thread yet, but you can get rid of a UTI by drinking lots of cranberry juice. Annnnnd now I see that everyone else has told you. I hope you get your sewing machine fixed. Geez… it has just not been your month. I hope everything gets better soon!!

I would agree to that. I think it is helpful to have other people’s opinions or expirences.

lol, awwwww i’m sorry snap! ya see, thats part of my charm! i can be awful, but some guys like it as i can be both a galpal and a girlfriend…. but it takes a certain guy to be comfortable with that. i get all the guys going at work with what i blurt out sometimes, me chiming in/kibbitzing on their guy conversation..they’re like “WHOA ……oh.. cooooool! ha ha! ” lol! it is a little wierd, as you lose a little of the feminine mystique….sounds like i lost brownie points for securing a juicy spot on the marriage list! darnit! lol! aww well, just being me. 🙄 i can be an aquired taste, but addictive in time. 🙂oh and snap, on the note of papa snap from earlier on, this is for you! lol!
