What becomes a Successful UTI treatment
Don't hop from place to place and drug to drug. Gyno Gab Gal saw three patients this week that had been running in to various quick care places to get the UTI check ups. Cultures were done, but that cruial link between culture and results and antibiotic had been broken. Patients weren't switched when cultures came back resistant. And if a doc is going to ignore the test,why do it at all? Yes, many infections will resolve regardless of the result, but often it's the reason they don't. So do get a primary gyno, and have her check your results and make sure the drug you take is the drug you need!
