Brief Answer:
Have you done a urine culture? What's the name of the germ identified if yes!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this repeated and resistant bladder infections that you have reported. The best approach at this time is to do a urine culture. This way, we can confirm the infection, identify the germ and what antibiotics it is resistant to or can be used to eliminate it. Please, let me know if this has been done already and if so, kindly upload the reports. If it has not been done, it should at this time.

I hope this helps. I wish you well and hope to hear back form you. Feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
