This is the worst flare I've had in FOUR YEARS! I'm freaking out...panicking that I'm back to the beginning of this again. Significantly increased frequency, lots of pressure, burning, etc.
I had a confirmed UTI about a week and a half ago and had seven days of levequin (that I finished on Thur. or Friday). I was feeling better and then in the last day or two have spiraled downward dramatically. My UTI dip stick showed no nitrates (which is what I had last time), but my WBC were off the chart!
I'm calling for a culture as soon as I get the pyridium out of my system this afternoon. Of course, I desperately want it to be an infection that hasn't cleared, but I'm guessing it's just a really bad flare.
I HATE THIS! I HATE THIS! I HATE THIS!!!!! I was in remission for years and now I'm falling apart.
