Guest guest Posted May 24, 2002 Report Share Posted May 24, 2002 Aleeta, I do take all of them. They give me 5 pills. I guess the problem might be is that they don't have me come in for a follow up. I called and the office is closed. They called me in another antibiotic and want me to call tuesday for an appointment.

Guest guest Posted May 25, 2002 Report Share Posted May 25, 2002 Jerry suffered from several infections and retention before being catheterized. We now have the catheter changed monthly. His UTIs were managed by a Urologist (this is the best person to see) and each course of antibiotics he had lasted 10 days but I know some antibiotic courses are less. We always returned for follow-up exams. I would suggest seeing a Urologist. We also had to pass on information about MSA to the Urologist who was quite comfortable saying he had never heard of it before. Good Luck, Jan > Hi all, > I know that we have talked several times on here about bladder > infections but I was wondering does someone with this disease have to > take antibiotics longer than a " normal " person does.

Guest guest Posted May 25, 2002 Report Share Posted May 25, 2002 Thanks, I am going to see a urologist. I need help with this and it looks like this is the specialist I need. Now, who do you all see for bowel movement problems? I know there has to be a different specialist for this. I figure as much water and fiber that I drink or eat I shouldn't have so many problems but I do. I guess I am wrong and something else needs to be done. > > Hi all, > > I know that we have talked several times on here about bladder > > infections but I was wondering does someone with this disease have > to > > take antibiotics longer than a " normal " person does.
