I am sorry to hear that. Is that anything
like a uti bcuz if so I know u can take
azo for that and it cures it pretty quick,
but in the mean time drink lots of
cranberry juice, it will make you go to
the bathroom frequently but it helps a
little.

I know cranberry juice can help prevent
them, unfortunatly tho I dont believe it
can cure em. I say drink lottttts of
water...I mean lots. U have to flush it
out of ur system so if its not already,
then it wont get to ur kidneys. Goodluck!
Ive had a bladder infection for 7 1/2
months straight now, basically most of my
pregnancy, but they cant seem to get rid
of it so ive been on antibiotics, but
mines not painful like urs. Im sorry, I
hope it gets better!

Cranberry juice is very acidic, and it
makes the enviorment such in your bladder
and kidneys that the bacteria can't live
and grow. It doesn't help as much as
medical treatment, but if you drink lots,
I think it can cure or at least help a
uti.

Jeff's mom says it can help, but won't
cure it. So I will get some cranberry to
drink, even though I hate that stuff, I
pray it helps some!!!!! this really sucks!
I've had 4 in my life time, a couple
really really bad ones and 1 that didn't
really hurt and since I really didn't
know, it went to my kidneys, and boy did
that hurt!!!! I have a bad one now, and
it might be in my kidneys, its so hard to
tell since I am hurting all over, and its
really driving me nuts, this darn baby
kicks my bladder and gosh that hurts soooo
bad!!!!!
tweety, what is azo? Do you need to get
that from a doctor? Is is safe for
pregnant woman??
I am kind of broke this month till the
9th, and august I will have plenty of
money, but this is going to be a tight few
days!! So really I need medication from
the dr so I can use my medical insurance.
Its really pissing me off though because I
can't get ahold of my dr to make an
appointment!!! I keep getting a message
and having to leave my info, which they
never call back!! They will only see me
on mondays and weds. So I am trying my
hardest to get in tomorrow, but watch I
have to sit around with this till
monday!!! I will be sooooo mad!!!!!

Ugh well I hope you get an appointment!
Theoretically I dont' know why it wouldn't
cure if you drank enough! Maybe its
physically impossible to drink enough for
it to cure you. Hope you get some
relief!
