UTI

[Babybeaublue]

Hi all
I said in another post how I was given the wrong antibiotics for a uti and was waiting for a different prescription. Well, apparently the Dr tore up my new script as my test came back from the lab clear even tho the nurse said I tested positive there and then. I'm still experiencing symptoms of the uti and am worried it could cause problems. I'm drinking lots of water etc but I can still feel it's there.
I can't get to see my Dr til next Friday. Do you think it's ok to wait it out or should I go wait for an emergency appointment? Thanks

Honestly, I'd get another appointment. With another doctor. A second opinion can't hurt!

The thing is I don't even know what Dr it was. DH went to pick up the prescription and was told I didn't need it (tell that to my bladder lol) if I wait to see someone it's pot luck who I'll get :/

Never mind.

How are you feeling today? Just now finding this thread. I hope your uti is getting better or that you were able to get the script xx

Hi girls I went for the emergency appointment, got test blood and white cells found. Told the dr I was pregnant she asked when i last saw a midwife, told her I hadn't yet so then she asked me when I have an appointment to see one I said I don't so she gave me a look like I was a simpleton. I told her seeing as I have to wait a month to see my own Gp for referral that appointment isn't til next fri. So she gave me a prescription and I went to pick it up, lo and behold they didn't have that particular antibiotic and I was told I'd probably have trouble getting it (WTF?) went to another - yes we have it but can you call back our system is down. Ok. Came back - sorry I read that wrong we don't have those and I've rrang around, can't get them and there's a manufacturing problem with them. OK 3 more chemists later I had to go back to th des to have it changed. She want there, had to call back. Finally after first going in at 10 am I got my tablets at 4.30 pm Hurray!!!!!!!!! Imagine if I had of been in agony? It's a joke.
Anyway sorry that was long but I had to vent lol!

Thanks I can't believe saying you have a UTI is so unbelievable honestly I would've got questioned less if I had committed a crime.

Babybeau what a flippin mess with how they treated u, if a PG woman has a UTI it needs to be taken seriously!!! I used to get UTI's allllll the time, but for some reason haven't gotten one in a while...ugh they are the WORST! I always knew when I had one, and my OBGyn would just let me call and say I was pretty sure I had one and they would call in the antibiotics and also the orange pill that coats the urethra and takes away the pain (forget what that pill is called), it was as simple as that! Hearing stories like yours and Mumofsix's make me so ANGRY, women, ESP PG women, should be taken care of immediately when it comes to lady-part problems, JEESH!!!!
Hope you feel better soon hon!

I should have peed myself in her office.

[Mrs_Incredible]

How are you feeling now? X

[Babybeaublue]

I'm ok. Uti seems to be gone but I'm now waiting on blood test results for hcg as I told the DR I wasn't having any real symptoms. So I have to wait to see what the results are then hopefully if all is well she will refer me to my hospital for midwifery care when I see her on Tuesday. Should get the results today fx

[Mrs_Incredible]

FX you get reassurance xx

[SamS_TTCPink]

Hope the bloods come up ok. Glad you're feeling better in regards to the uti. x

[Babybeaublue]

Thank you I phoned to get the results but it was just the receptionist so all I got out of her was that it was normal? I asked 'So all ok then I take it?' And she said yeah. Honestly you'd think they'd at least put someone on that knows what they're talking about.

They have so many legal restrictions on what they can say to you any more, getting info from them is like pulling teeth!!! Everyone's so afraid of getting sued. Grr. I'm glad you're feeling better though!!!

[Babybeaublue]

Thanks. I should've asked to be put through to the nurse, she said they might do that when she took my blood as in her words " they won't have a clue what it means" lol maybe I'm better waiting til Tuesday to see the dr.
