Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

They gave me an Rx for yet another antibiotic in my Year of Antibiotics: Bactrim, for 3 days. They push Cipro*, but because I had such a bad problem with joint pain after taking Levaquin (which is in the same family), I push back and tell them that I'll take it only if they culture my [whatever the problem is] and find out it's susceptible ONLY to Cipro.
*(I understand why they push Cipro; it's broad spectrum and therefore kills a lot of different strains of bacteria. That said, if Cipro is over-used [and I'm fairly certain it is], then resistant strains will develop, and that won't end well.)

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
WS, yes indeed. Thanks!

Teppy, may you have relief and health soon.

Teppy, some of those are the symptoms I had several years ago before I was major antibiotics and diagonised with painful bladder syndrome.
I really recommend both AZO and Aloe as supplements to help with pain. If your bladder is inflamed or sensitive due to an infection avoiding really acidic things (citrus, vinegars, etc), especially cranberry juice and spicy foods might help.

painful bladder syndrome
I've never heard of this. My bladder is pretty damn painful, though. I might have some AZO in the medicine cabinet.

It's also called Interstitial Cystitis.

Mine has gone apparently gone away because I'm able to eat tomatoes in a fairly regular basis now.
My urologist also recommended OTC pain killer to help with the pain as well.

Oh! I've heard of that. I...actually have a lot of IC symptoms, but the problem is that they're also the symptoms of a lot of other things. V. frustrating.

There's some research that shows Vitamin D helps with the symptoms and once I started taking it regularly that's when I was able to eat more.
But mine was always very mild and controlled by diet. I haven't had a UTI in a year (which is a big deal for me) but last year when I had a UTI I'd only eat my "safest" foods - corn, white rice, chicken or beef, parsley, fennel, garlic, potatoes, and milk. Which is a very limited diet but I would only do that for a few days and it would help the pain of the UTI,
