The cath was only in the hospital which apparenlty started this infection

It must be so hard to have daily use of a catheter for so many months.

Hope all the doctors are onboard and providing good solutions.

Rest well.

Stop being afraid of what could go wrong and start being positive what could go right.

As a UTI sufferer, I feel for you. That is miserable.

I am one that cannot take Bactrim. It messes up my stomach and it never fully kills the bacteria and I always ended up having to be put on another antibiotic because the UTI returned a couple weeks later or I never got any better after taking Bactrim.

Hopefully you are feeling better. It does seem things happen one on top of the other. Good luck. They can be miserable.

I am another one who can't tolerate Bactrim/Septra....... I find that Cipro helps me.... I don't get why one doctor will give me 10 pills (q12 hours) for five days and another doctor will give me 14 pills (q12 hours) for seven days.

@I am still oxox I am also recovering from UTI. I am taking Nitrofurantoin Mono. It has been working so far. I also am taking Cranberry pills I got from Walgreens.

Feel better soon. UTI is not pleasant at all.

Hope you're starting to feel better. Bactrim always worked well for me.

UTI's are so miserable, between Thanksgiving and Christmas I was on three different antibiotics--Macrobid, Cipro,and Amoxicillin. Made for some pretty miserable holidays.
