I have suffered for a number of years with urine infections that have been treated with anti-biotics. For several weeks i have had a slight burning sensation in the mornings which i find is eased when i drink a couple of glasses of water. I went to my doctor who tested my urine and said that i had blood in it but nothing else. This has been sent away for testing and in the meantime i am taking ciprofloxacin. However, after nearly 5 days the problem hasn't gone and i am becoming concerned it could be something more serious. In the last 4 weeks my stools have been rather loose and i am noticing that there is undigested food in them (no blood that i can see). Is it possible that the two are linked? Any ideas what the problem could be and what the best way of treating it is?
