Guest guest Posted February 26, 2004 Report Share Posted February 26, 2004 WILL THAT CAUSE IT?

Guest guest Posted February 26, 2004 Report Share Posted February 26, 2004 Well, from what I hear if you are drinking coffee and tea with caffeine, then you have to drink more water and water type drinks like Crystal Lite and Propel to make up for that. When I had my surgery, I totally kicked caffeine. You might want to try increasing your water and/or not drinking coffee or tea with caffeine. Sorry you are having this discomfort. Is the antibiotic in liquid form or pill? If it is a pill your body may not be getting the full use of the antibiotics due to malabsorption. Would be interested in other people's take/suggestions on this matter as well.

Guest guest Posted March 8, 2004 Report Share Posted March 8, 2004 What kind of Crystal Lite? I found that when I drank too much of the lemonade, I got the start of a UTI. I then drank enough water to flush it out and it never turned into one. The acid from the lemonade very often causes it.
