Three letters: UTI

GRRRRR.

Woke up at 12:30 to pee and felt that oh-so-annoying burning/tinge at the end ... I said to myself YOU HAVE GOT TO BE JOKING. I tried to ignore it, said maybe I'm just half asleep, maybe it's not one.

I laid back down and couldn't sleep because I felt like I had to go again.

Got up, went online to look up some info and sitting was soooo much worse. I went to a 24 hour CVS at 1:30AM to get the uristat stuff. I feel better now, and my mom has some sulfa I can take.

Yeah, I have no insurance. And don't know how to get some now that I missed this months' deadline for Healthy NY. This laid off thing gets worse and worse.

ughhh so sorry Jenn! Drink a lot of fluids- cranberry juice, water! anything.

My doctor recommended that I take a cranberry supplement and it seems to be working well- the number of utis has definately declined.

feel better

i get it as well and i usually drink tons of water - luke warm works best.. atleast 4 glasses and it takes care of it by itself..

some women are more prone to uti's because of tight fitting undies and jeans.. and always pee right after sex.. feel better!

I haven't gotten one in YEARS. The other day after sex I didn't pee right away ... and when I remembered about 15 later I went.... this could have caused it. UGH so damn annoying.

Two words:
CRANBERRY JUICE

I mean drink it to the point where looking at it makes you want to gag. Its simple but it always does the job.

Re: Three letters: UTI

Thanks girls!! I think it's minor but still annoying - esp since I couldn't sleep last night and had to go to CVS at 1:30 but I knew that if I didn't, it might have gotten worse. I think that it might even go away without meds - the stuff I bought at cvs is an anti-bacterial - but I will take the sulfa my mom has just in case!

Anyone know if sulfa affects BC pills?

Def. lots of water and cranberry juice. Also try Azo, that seems to work also.
