@caroljonae I am hoping you are feeling better today? Wondering if you have an UTI [urinary tract infection] that is causing the burning sensation. A doctor will usually prescribe the SMZ-TMP twice a day for 3 or 4 days for an UTI. Once I had an UTI that needed a double length of time, but that was my case. Lots of fluids is always a good thing unless you have kidney issues. Some people swear by lemon water, also.

Hi @caroljonae, don't you hate it when these concerning health issues come up during the holidays. I'm tagging @gingerw on this message in the hopes that she may have to tips to offer.
Carol, did you have the same symptoms of burning last night? Were you able to get in touch with your doctor this moring? I agree that this needs to be investigated even if the symptoms have subsided.
