Don't wait for the snowstorm!

Awww Kicker, it's okay.

It finally dawned on me this evening that I have a UTI...again, last one was in October.

I buy UTI test strips to check for a UTI, then I call my PCP. The test strip shows I have blood in the urine but the other part of the test strip comes up negative...just like in October.

These last two UTIs have not given me any of the "normal" symptoms for a UTI. The only thing that give me any indication is a pseudo-exacerbation.

I will contact my PCP on Monday, like you I am not going to the ER.

Only time I had that was with a bad UTI. Does your doctor know you well enough to give you an antibiotic without seeing you. Monday can be a long time when you have a UTI. He can be just a phone call away even on a holiday

(((((Kicker)))))...Sheesh, honey, I sorry.

I'd probably call the Doc and see what he/she thinks. My Doc would call in an ABX and then go back to his party. So you may not need to go to the ER. Can you imagine xmas in the ER.

How are you doing tonight? Any better?
I just now saw this. Be better soon..

|Actually I do feel better. Blood and any discomfort is gone, my urologist loaded me up with AB Which is also one he prescribed for my UTI last year which had traces of blood culture said. My PCP also prescribes this Anti-biotic to take as a precaution when sexually active. So, I am taking it (I know i should not misuse AB and I swear I'm not, this is often two doctors first choice to try. I have no fever, no blood, no discomfort. On Monday I intend to call my own PCP. She lets me send urine samples in containers she provides, brought to her by DH, as they are in same office mall. But I have had much better Christmases.
