UTI from H***/Heck
It won't go away. Lab tests can't grow any specific bacteria to try to eradicate. PCP trying 4th course of antibiotics, Augmentin. I know it's still there, both PCP and I suspect retaining involved, I'm making Urology appt. with Johns Hopkins affiliated people. Self-cathing may be recommended but can I do that with my use of only one hand? PCP says she doesn't know. In-dwelling cath and increased risk of infection looking bad to me. A home health aide? Hate the thought, don't want anyone around all day, let alone cathing me. I'm engaging in a bout of angry tears at this situation. MS sucks. Oh, and tomorrow is my 54 birthday. Old, can't walk, cathing, well it all just sucks.
