Hi, I posted a bit ago about DD4 suddenly having cloudy urine. She was treated with antibiotics but the cloudy urine is continuing and now she has started having accidents - says there is no pain but she can't feel that she has to go.

I have requested her urine culture results and made another appointment but honestly at a loss about what this could be

OP those are classic UTI symptoms.

It may be the first round of antibiotics didn’t hit it completely or they weren’t quite the right ones, but take her back with a sample.

Thank you - I know they are UTI symptoms but GP has said the culture came back completely clear?? We are repeating the culture anyway but they don't want to prescribe more ab's and have said we can go in to discuss next steps, but no further info

Also try to get her drinking as much as possible, not blackcurrant as that can be irritating to the bladder, but any fluids you can. Try putting water in different receptacles, put some in a bowl, let her pretend to be a kitten, milk is fine, squash is fine, just try to get the volume up.
have a look at the ERIC website.

Nhs urine tests are unreliable you could get her a more accurate urine test with digital microbiology.
