Suffering From UTI, Frequent Urination After Bladder Sling Being Done. Allergic To Antibiotics. Suggestions?

I have a UTI infection and am allergic to lots of antibiotics. I started taking Macobid 2 days ago and now i an broke out on my neck( my tipical reaction to meds) My urinary Dr said there is nothing he can give me that I am not allergic to that fights the bacteria infection enterococcus saecalis that I have.What can I do? Wont it just get worse if I do nothing? I had a bladder sling done in April and my urinating has not been normal since. I have to urinate every hour and a half to two hours max.

hi
thanks for your question.
I usually prescribe anti allergy drugs together with antibiotic in similar cases.
My uti patients usually do well after giving these combination.
discuss this option with your doctor.
Hope I answered your question.

I suggest you not to take any antibiotics on your own without supervision..you need to get a sensitivity test done to find out for drug allergy...for your urinary frequency i would say you have to consult a physician because long standing urinary infection can cause frequency symptoms..so get treated for urinary infection first after drug allergy test and then if symptoms persists then consult your surgeon who performed the sling procedure..

you definitely need to be treated for the infection...use a wide spectrum antibiotic like norflox for 3-5 days..but i would also suggest you consult a physician where he can have a culture sensitivity done for antibiotics..but till you get a report done you better start with antibiotic norflox..also consume lot of water and maintain good hygeine..consume more of barley beverage in your drinks..
