I've clearly got a UTI. I've peed 4 times in the past 30 mins coupled with that unmistakable pain shooting up your urethra. I know what it is.
I've to wait until 8am to get the appointment lottery with the GP.

I'm fucking pissed off tbh.

AIBU to be fucked off with my sexual partner for giving me another fucking UTI (second in as many weeks). Angry

You do know people get UTIs even when sexually inactive, you sound immature and angry. I’m sorry you are in pain but blaming someone for something that is common to women is a bit weird

Yadid · 19/09/2019 03:07

Alice honey. I'm 42 years of age. I know a UTI and I know how I get them. I'm in pain, peeing a lot (including on myself) as I had just peed so didn't believe myself, so I know the symptoms, I know exactly what is wrong with me.

UTIs aren't sexually transmitted. Sex can set them off, but it's really weird for you to be so blamey about it.

Alicewond · 19/09/2019 03:16

Yadid honey ( does that sound as patronising as when you said it to me) I also have have many uti’s as a grown woman. Sometimes because of sex. But I’ve never been so arrogant to blame the man for consensual sex. What is happening to you is a by product of what you chose to do. It’s not his fault, nor yours. It’s just biology being annoying

NoSauce · 19/09/2019 03:21

He’s a doctor? Well you should know that he hasn’t ‘given’ you a uti then because he should know that and should have explained it to you.

Yadid · 19/09/2019 03:26

He apologised after the first one and I said 'Hey, look, not your fault'. But this is the second one and I'm not so blase anymore. He could be more hygienic!

If it’s your second in 2 weeks, I would make sure he knows. Don’t just assume he knows because he’s a doctor. I would also make sure my bum area was cleaner, as that’s often a cause. And if he pokes around the place with his penis, I’d not let him put it in me, if I was getting recurrent UTIs. I’d say a UTI is not only one persons fault. Although I know how awful it feels.

Alicewond · 19/09/2019 03:28

And you could become more educated on UTIs

A teaspoon of bicarbonate in a glass of water might ease things bit until you can get proper treatment in the morning.

Yadid · 19/09/2019 03:28

I never blooming said UTI's were an STD. Lol, you do like to leap to conclusions here.

The act of sex, can result in you getting a UTI however.

OP posts:
Alicewond · 19/09/2019 03:30

And if you are blaming hygiene then it’s likely the result from your own back passage rather than anything related to him

Yadid · 19/09/2019 03:30

I think I'll just wait up, as it's now every 5 minutes that I'm peeing and I'm afraid that if I go to sleep, I'll wet myself!

Yadid · 19/09/2019 03:31

Alice, you seem determined to blame me lol. Okay........

Butchyrestingface · 19/09/2019 03:32

Up with a cold, earache and sore throat. 🤧🤒

Slightly agog at what OP’s partner’s peen has been up to.

Alicewond · 19/09/2019 03:32

True that sex can cause a uti but if it’s consensual then you have not right to blame the partner for it

Alicewond · 19/09/2019 03:34

I don’t blame you op, it’s a thing that commonly happens. I just have people blaming others for something which wasn’t their fault

Alicewond · 19/09/2019 03:34

Hate

FuckFacePlatapus · 19/09/2019 03:34

Im awake, always am when its my night off. Eldest is up playing Fifa, other 2 fast asleep. Drink lots and lots of water @Yadid

Yadid · 19/09/2019 03:35

Alice honey. Maybe I should have put 'LIGHTHEARTED' in the title.

OP posts:
Alicewond · 19/09/2019 03:38

Maybe you should of honey, nothing you’ve said has sounded lighthearted and we’re nit mind readers

Alicewond · 19/09/2019 03:40

Not that should have been, nit readers would be even weirder than this thread 😂

Derbee · 19/09/2019 03:41

@Alicewomd it’s should HAVE, not should OF. Sorry to correct you, it’s just that you’re being a bit nasty and nit picky, so thought you’d want to know

FuckFacePlatapus · 19/09/2019 03:42

Oh and now i can hear a Police chase going on with lots of sirens, and wheel-spinsConfused

Derbee · 19/09/2019 03:42

Ah, cross post. You’ve corrected yourself. Phew

Alicewond · 19/09/2019 03:44

Why thank you honey, I’ll be back after an extremely satisfying bone painful wee 😂
