My SP has been in two years since this April. During this time my monthly UTIs have become bi-annual. I try taking good advice but about not to take antibiotics too early in the stages is challenging. By the time my face has become sloshed with red areas I will have ached enough. Often if I am luck by drinking large amounts of water to clean up. As of late the discussion on Colloidal Silver I found interesting possably with results. More latter but for now, possably.

Cannot read or display file.Error! Cannot read or display file. Since a urethral foley catheter and a supra-pubic one still go into the bladder directly I consider them the same. Anyway, for me... I know I have a bladder infection when I first began having certain jitters that I now recognize after 28 years that are the first signs of an oncoming fever. I do not treat any infection that does not include a having a fever. I went through years of very foul-smelling urine and to this day I still do not know why it had a very peculiar smell. But because of resistance I was not going to go through a regimen of antibiotics looking at the long run. I am glad that I did not because when I began having chronic ones that got worse and worse and worse... I needed those strong antibiotics to help me when it was beyond important!

Since, you always have bacteria.....even if it's good bacteria.....you always are positive for a UTI. I am experiencing hourly abdominable spasms followed by sweating. Each episode lasts about 60 seconds. The tube is not clogged as I continue to pee through the catheter. Wonder what you guys think. Thanks, Paul c5/6 complete
