Grrr...I was in remission for six months. (After a five month flair!) Last week I came down with a confirmed UTI (nitrates in urine culture) and have been on levaquin (sp?) for two days. Between that and a yeast infection I'm back in a flair. My symptoms (pressure, frequency, burning) are still there even after two days of antibiotics. How long do these types of flares usually last? What do the rest of you do for them?
I'm doing the following...
Antibiotics religiously
Almond milk (really is soothing for me)
Pyridium
Tums
Lots of rest
Just tried the banking soda trick (yuck! But if it works...) Be careful with that though---you can't take your antibiotic within two hours of taking tums, sodium bicarb, etc.
Anyone have any other suggestions?
