Last Tuesday, I felt that unmistakable feeling where I just couldn't go to the toilet enough. The week before I had thrush (treated with oral tablet and cream) and now this! Called the docs for an appt, they confirmed rbc, wbc and protein in urine and gave me 3 days of antibiotics. Started feeling better on the last day in the day time and then it all kicked off in the night, tummy cramps, couldn't sleep due to needing a wee constantly etc. Went back on Friday and had another urine sample, wbc and protein in urine, did a physical exam (some pelvic pressure/discomfort) and gave me another 3 days of a different anti-biotic. They have sent my urine off to the lab as well. The exact same thing has happened! Actually slept well last night, a couple of strong urges to wee in the day but nothing extreme and now, on this last evening of the anti-biotics, I'm unable to get out of the bathroom! I've resorted to sitting in a hot bath because it is unbearable.
I'll have to call them again tomorrow but what is going on? Has anyone had 2 sets of anti-biotics fail and, if so, what happened next? I'm utterly miserable here, any advice gratefully received.
