@liz223.... Funny, but not....a uti, is so uncomfortable it may trump stroke headaches, TOS, fibro, and trigeminal all at once! The burning and ache are so acute. Feeling for you, pain in back and bladder is NO fun. No fun at all.

Actually, nothing trumps trigeminal. Nothing. But still, uti's are no pic-nic. As soon as symptoms arise, if I act quick enough, I drink a couple quarts of water over a couple hours and many times it will flush urinary system. If I can avoid antibiotics, and a doctor visit I'm happy. Of course there's always cranberry juice, but I find the water more effective because I can drink more of it, faster, for quicker results. If I don't act quickly, a uti quickly turno into kidney infection for me, which is much worse!
