After a year or more of back-to-back UTIs I'm currently on a low-dose antibiodic daily. And it's doing the
trick. All those UTIs with high fevers were wreaking havoc with my body most likely.
I guess one is LESS LIKELY for bugs to become resistant to low dose antibiodics rather than 7-10 day
runs of high dosages. And resistance can pose big threats.
Be sure one is on THE correct drug, however, by doing sensitivities with the culture. Otherwise it's a futile
attempt at resolving the problem at large.

We found out what was causing all of Gabe’s bowel and bladder spasms. Another UTI, that means Gabe has had one almost steady for three months now. He has an appointment Thursday with urologist. I think it might be time for a series of antibiotic instillations. That is the only way he has kicked big ones before. Thanks for all of your suggestions.
