gives sj the fisheye for being negative

Sorry for the negative, I am just completely overwhelmed at the moment. I want everything to be perfect tonight and I still have to wrap the gifts, ect. Plus, I feel into my old bad habits with school and procrastinated a little too much. Right now I am just trying to have an anxiety attack because I doubt that will help matters.

Ok, my body is acting the way it did when I had a UTI that ran for six months. And? I have an earache.

One reason why I love my boyfriend. I just e-mailed him to come a little bit later tonight because I want everything to be perfect when he gets here, and this is the response I received:

"What could be more perfect than a yummy meal and you?"

Wow, how does one have a UTI for 6 months without kidney rupture? Or, you know, without wanting to DIE?

Your UTIs must not be like my UTIs. I couldn't deal with one unchecked for 6 days, let alone months. Are you positive this is the correct diagnosis? However, I may just be a huge wimp.

That man's a keeper.

edit: sj's guy, that is.

{{{{Windsparrow}}} Go see a doctor right away. UTIs should not go unchecked.

UTI symptoms can vary widely from person to person. I barely have an pain when I have one (which is often), other than just feeling icky.

Man, I can't deal with one for 6 hours. I've only had 2 (knock wood) but ended up in the emergency room for both because the pain was so bad I couldn't think. They hurt worse than having the surface of my eye etched off with acid and regrow over 3 days; worse than walking on a fibula that was snapped into two pointy pieces for 2 days; worse than childbirth.

You're no wimp. I just don't experience much in the way of concrete pain with mine. The six month one, that just an estimate of how long it went on. You see, after a few months of night sweats, (ETA some minor irregularity with my period), fatigue, and little accidents, I went in to talk to my doc about premature menopause. He ran a battery of tests in which nothing hormonal was out of range. Had me pee in a cup, and Ta Da! massive white blood cell count. By the time the antibiotics had done their stuff and I was feeling enough better I wanted to do things like go for a walk, I couldn't so much as make it across the road without weeping in exhaustion.

There has been much fatigue in the last few months which I was chaulking up to the stress of the move. Had a couple of little accidents, and last night, I woke up in a cold sweat. So, the diagnosis is by no means sure, but I do feel much like I did back then. I have lots of immune-system boosting supplements, so I'll take 'em, and see what happens. Olive leaf extract, garlic, and some other good stuff. I'd rather try this then run off to an uninsured doctor visit on the basis of one night sweat.

Mal is SIX MONTHS OLD? Wow. That seems fast. Does it seem fast to you, Raq?

Not Raq, but Em turns 10 months old in 9 days and WHERE DID IT GO?? It seems very very very fast. At this, rate, I'll be posting her DL picture next month!

Poor Cash!! Owen, you be a good boy and listen to the stories!

Wow, whoda thunk it. I didn't mean to assume...

Try cranberry supplements, thought I don't know how effective they are after a UTI has set in.

t /my UTIs love carrots
