Thank you. I have been struggling for 14 yrs. with different infections. My uterous ruptured with the birth of my sec son. I developed a staff infection at the hospital. I have had many flair-ups. I have seen so many doctors in the past who always just treated me for whatever was going on that seemed like a quick fix. The worst part is that I was getting MANY UTI's. So...I found a way on my own to help my immune system. I have done my own research. My infections went away for about 5 yrs while I was using a very potent antioxidant formula. Now my problem is coming back with UTIs. The bacteria they discovered was entero bacter aerogenens. I think my doctor wants to send me to a Urologist, but I think that may be a waste of time because if it is systemic, that probably won't help. This problem has really affected my life more than anyone can know. I currently have a UTI, but they switched my antibiotic to Levaquin because that is the only one to kill that bacteria. It will keep coming back unless I receive proper treatment. What do you suggest I do from here? Allison
- Antibiotics should according to the urine culture only. - Hydration with plenty of liquids. - CT scan to rule out stone or others as part of the infection process. - Local hygienic care. - Avoid sexual intercourse till recovery. - Avoid stress. - Balanced nutritious diet to combat the immunity.
