(nancy / shortshot) Good Saturday June 15 Morning. I finally found my way back here, Thank you Colleen! Have been having a bunch of urine infections for the past four or so months along with every thing else. Had to go to emergency Wednesday with horrible belly/bladder pain. Had been on medicine for the past seven days and found out the bug I had was a drug resistant bug. The doc changed the medicine and also gave me a drug to numb my bladder. Primary doc is sending me to a urologist to see what if whatever is causing all this. I'm tired of all of it. Also am going to physical therapy, to help me get back to walking. Didn't have only two weeks of PT after breaking my left hip. So that's what has been going on for me... Such fun! Everyone have a great day... Nancy

@shortshot80 It is always good to hear from you, Nancy, but I'm so sorry to hear that you have been ill. Bladder infections are just the worst! I hope the new medicine will work well for you and you can get some relief. I'm sure physical therapy will help you with your walking. Will you be starting PT soon?

Any more progress on your book? How is the weather in your part of the country?

Good morning @shortshot80. This past year I contracted a very bad bladder infection rebounded from an antibiotic that obviously didn't work. I wound up in the ER with a 105 fever. Thankfully the ER dr. was good and started me on liquids and an antibiotic IV to get the infection under control They are extremely painful and can lead to kidney infections.
Mayo has a great site for this, https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/urinary-tract-infection/symptoms-causes/syc-20353447
Did you know that for women that e-coli is the main cause for women who get bladder infections? Somehow evolution gave us a very vulnerable spot for you know what.
Are you in a lot of pain? Do you have an appointment yet with a urologist?
