I know that it's just not because of sex. I have had UTI's on a monthly basis since I was 16. I have one right now, and I have been to the doctor and to the ER because of the extreme pain. I have been on every antibiotic that they can think of. I get one at least twice a month, around the time of my menstrual cycle. I have been to three different urologists, and they are dumbfounded to why I am having to go through all of this.
I am now 34, and I'm getting so tired of the pain that comes every month. I just want it to go away....it's effecting my life, my job. It gets to the point, I can't even walk, sit down, or stand up. I have had to take norco to make the pain ease just to get by
I just want it to go away, and it's not going to. It's depressing....I have been told that taking both cranberry pills along with Vitamin C helps, and also this yogurt drink called Kefir does too. Anyone have different ideas? Drinking tons of water just puts pressure on things, and makes it hurt even more. Drinking just plain cranberry juice (not the cocktail stuff, the actual, honest to goodness juice), doesn't help either.
