Uti Posted: 09-18-05 23:21pm
I have concluded that the cause of my
painful and frequent urination, painful
intercourse, and hematuria is a uti. This
is my first one and I don't really know
much about having them. I know you can go
to the doctor and get antibacterial meds,
but i'd like to not do that since i'm away
at college and I don't have the money
really. I thought they only lasted a few
days, but i'm almost at a week now. I
finally broke down and purchased those
uristat pills and---omg---it at least
feels so much better and i'm not using the
bathroom every hour. I know it's only a
medication to help relieve the symptoms,
but I was wondering when I should break
down and see a doctor. I can do my own
uti test to entirely ascertain that a uti
is indeed my problem, but there's no way I
have an std and this whole ic and other
stuff just doesn't cut it for me. So any
info will be appreciated. Thanks so much!
