Sal,
Do you think the AZO thingies *oh carp can't think of the word* well, do they accurately tell us that we have a UTI?

AZO is a pill taken for the pain caused by a UTI. If you are talking about the home dip stick test for a UTI, I have no idea. I've not tried it?

Right...I was thinking of the dx sticks. I'm afraid to use the pills with all the other meds I take...sometimes I think I'm going to wake up and will discover that I've turned into a giant gel tab...

Hey Sally. I cath morn & night (and use leg bag) since i'm a para and I constantly have uti's. Easy way to tell is pee in a clear cup and look for cloudiness. My last Culture & Sensitivity urine test showed the bacteria was suceptable to only a few anibiotics. Cipro was one. Was my last choice after 1st choice failed cause every time I take Cipro, I get the tendon issues. Alergist said hmmm "why would it cause tendon problems?" I said maybe I don't make enough collagen. Confused him so he walked out.

I'm allergic to Cipro (not good for MSers, anyway), all the sulfas and Macridid.....so, am taking Amoxicillin. It takes a little longer, but it works..

I usually don't retain, if I'm careful to squeeze my bladder to get out those last few drops..

I'm sorry that you have them often...grrrrr I hate them.

Lucky for you Amox works. I'm allergic to all of em too they make me itchy!
My C&S showed the bacteria I had wasn't susceptible (won't die) from Amox so I had to go with broad spectrum but it still comes back. I drink 1/2 gallon water/day.
