Hi x I think I replied to you on your other thread about this? The nhs labs only test for certain bacteria. Google Regenerus Labs. They test for all sorts of different bacteria. Think the test is quite expensive but worth it. They can also go through the results with you and prescribe the correct antibiotics. I know what it’s like to have bladder pain and be paralysed with fear. Try not to worry.

Hi @Kirstymariex - do you have a packet of your own urine test strips at all?
