UTI

[Lesley]

I have a bad one (like the ones I used to get once a month prior to bladder elevation surgery). I did a culture on MONDAY and picked up Cipro, but have been waiting for the results before taking them.
This week has been bad. A flare up. No real D but a lot of soft serve, weird looking stools, with a lot of mucous. Also, a lot of allergic reaction - phlegm, itching and so forth. Plus pain and exhaustion. I had to drag myself back to bed this morning. Not something I do unless I feel really bad.
This deterioration has to be connected to the UTI, so I am hoping that with the Cipro and improvement in the urinary department I can go back to the previous status quo on the MC scoreboard, which was a lot better than this. Not nearly good enough, which is why I did the MRT, but much preferable to this.
