posted on here a couple of weeks ago about my increasing need to go for a wee all the time and someone helpfully suggested I had a UTI. Saw doctor who pescribed me a 3 day course of antibiotics and these have helped, had really sore abdomen which is getting better and not having to go to the loo as often, only been twice today

However, after finishing the 3 day course of antibiotics yesterday do still have some tummy pain. Worried that the infection hasn't completely gone and is still lingering. Should I try and see gp again for another prescription or will it eventually clear up on its own? Worried as I suffered amost 2 weeks with symptons before I saw doctor, so keep obsessing that the infection has had weeks to take hold and wont go without a fight...

Never had UTI before and don't want one ever again, bloody awful.

go back. what did they give you? If it was Trimeth it sometimes doesn't work. You might need another different type, but meanwhile keep drinking bland drinks- not tea, coffee , fizzy or alcohol.

This sitewww.cobfoundation.org is very helpful.
