Another duel infection with flare here

06-05-2011, 01:25 PM

I have been battling a bacterial uti and yeast in my urine for over a month now. About to finish up most recent round of meds and am miserable. I don't think I can take much more of this. Have already spent several days on iv fluids and meds a few weeks ago due to kidney infection that was out of control. Anyone else experience infection that won't go away and stay away at least for just one day of peace?

Tried Elmiron, Elavil, Atarax, Botox...with no success and/or adverse reactions.

Current: self administered bladder installations (down to 2x a day per dr advice), Lamictal, Lexapro, Lorazepam, Zyrtec occasionally, Prelief, Tramadol, Oxycodone, Trimethoprim at bedtime, Gabapentin, Omeprazole, Flector patch, Tens Unit, warm baths, other forms of heat therapy, IC diet, Gluten/Wheat free diet, vitamins and Premarin because of hysterectomy and osteoporosis.

Have difficulty getting pain under control from IC and other health issues. I've pretty much accepted it as part of my life.

I am thankful for supportive family and friends. Not everyone is supportive all of the time, but I am so thankful for the support I do receive.

I pray for healing for all and for a cure.
