Mad Another UTI.
It takes a day or two of feeling s***ty, before I'm pretty sure I'm in the beginnngs of another UTI.. I just gobbled down a bunch of Cranberry caps and washed them down with a big glass of cran. juice.

I'm so tired, all I want to do is lay down and rest/sleep. I have things to do, but they're not gonna get done today.

Just when I cheered up, things got worse.. OH well, just a little side trip and a layover. I will survive.

Thanks all..

Are some people more prone to UTI's than others? I don't recall ever having one. (Well, not yet, anyway). Hope you start feeling better soon!!

I have the same question. I've not had a UTI to my knowledge (from the sounds of it, if you have one you'll know it).

I hope you're feeling better real soon SallyC

I think anytime you retain urine, you are prone to infection. With an MS bladder, I do sometimes retain, even though I take measures not to..

Sally, I'm sorry you're not well.

I've had more UTIs than I can count, and I think it's good to get to a doctor at the first sign of one, have a urine culture and get hold of the best drug that will work against whatever bacteria are found.

It's all too easy for the kidneys to get involved. I don't mean to scare you but I myself don't fool around with UTIs.

Still feeling pretty carpy, but it's the weekend so I'll wait untill Monday and if I am still in this shape, will call Doc. He'll probably call in some Amoxicillin for me. It usually takes longer, but it does the job.

Thanks for all your caring..
