@vlbondon Has your doctor run a culture, to see what antibiotic would be effective with your UTI? This may be needed, if they cannot get a handle on it.

We may experience UTIs, but the causes and remedies can be vastly different. And sometimes medications we take have a side effect of giving us more chance for a UTI.

Ph, I don't doubt the problems with the right drug. My test culture was done in hospital in Oct/Nov and with the CDC's overview, that was when I went on IV enterpenem for 10 days. Checked clear and almost immediately got an infection. I am suspecting this originates in my kidneys so left a sample just now at UTI specialist I started with two weeks ago. If all this doesn't work soon, I will try to get into Mayo's. I am too old to be messing around, at 78 yrs. Thanks.
