RE: [QUAD-L] uti

[Greg]

I had 1 UTI that was so bad that I needed an IV. I was lucky that my insurance let a nurse come to my house each day. It was in a small ball, made so it did not need to stay hanging above you. It just laid on my lap for an hour each day. Greg     --- Hi everybody, I know everyone gets tired of talking uti's I've done pretty good seeing I've only had a couple in the last couple yrs, anyway this one been hanging on for the last few months just recently got a new urolgist (my old one moved) I explained that oral antibiotics don't work with me but he put me on cipro and macrobid for 14 days twice a day, he had me change my cath half way through so he could check that was about five days after i started! finished today get home and his office had left a message tha! t the re sults show oral antibiotics won't work with this bug but that there is four iv ones that will and wants me to go to hospital to get 10 days of treatments about a hr a day his office said, i'm waiting for the hospital to call so i can schedule my question is dose this sound like standard procedure?
