Can anyone please tell me how serious this is because it's late and I'm having a terrible panic.
My GP called to say that they found bacteria in my urine lab test (I've been having symptoms like bladder /urethral pain, high frequency, night time weeing off the scales... on and off for 6 weeks.) I've been using the estrogen pessary religiously as advised on this board but don't think it's related...
I've had one test that came clear, gp dipsticks that show leukocytes... But now she's saying that they found strep apparently it's unusual. There wasn't enough bacteria to warrant action but they want to repeat the test Monday. Needless to say my symptoms have gone through the roof and I'm terrified.
I've read it's impossible to treat... Two years ago I had an e coli infection that became antibiotic resistant and after 10 courses of antibiotics I was told I could go into sepsis. I eventually managed to recover but that was pure hell and very scary.
Now I'm scared I have this new bacteria... Is it really impossible to shift?
Thank you
