I have been tested by both, no diabetes, slightly high blood pressure, a total hysterectomy 20 years ago for uterine cancer, no recurrences. what could be causing this?
Hello dear, Understand your concern. I think you are suffering from Urinary tract infection.
Causative factor: E.coli, staphylococcus Obesity Excessive smoking Excessive coffee consumption. Diabetes Less water consumption
Take the following test: 1. Urine test 2. Urine culture 3. CBC blood report 4. Blood urea and creatinine 5. Pelvic USG Take following treatment: 1. Drink plenty of water 2. Drink fruit juice of orange and cranberry. 3. Antibiotic: Tablet septran Three times a day for three-four days is a standardized therapy for UTI If not resolved take antibiotics according to culture report. Avoid fried/fatty/oily food and excessive no veg diet.
Hope this may help you Best regards Dr. sagar
