Today I have a few things to do, one of which includes a walk down to the store to get the money order for my rent and a few groceries. For the last few days I have not been able to get myself to the doctor for an infection that I know I have (UTI). I will go on Monday without fail, but in the meantime I have to get through the weekend and I have to do it while enduring PAIN. I do take Pills for it (just OTC acetominophen/aspirin combo) I wonder if I am subconciously punishing myself or something.
There have been other times that I have trudged through my days in physical PAIN of some sort. Do you all function through your pain, or do you lie down and relax. I have put myself in a position of having crap to do, and having to do it while in pain. DUMB DUMB DUMB. Posted on 12/29/07, 01:12 pm |

I used to take something for UTI called, I think, perdiem.
Looked up this: Other Over-the-counter products include Cystex and AZO or Uristat. Cystex contains the antibacterial methenamine as well as sodium salicylate, a pain reliever. AZO and Uristat contain the medicine phenazopyridine, which works in the bladder to relieve pain. Don't be alarmed if phenazopyridine turns your urine an orange-red color. This is normal. I have used Cystex too. Also, I think there is a Cranberry supplement. I would ask the pharmacist, and maybe call the DR to check first, of course, depending on other meds you might take.

Ok, I have cranberry juice, I can do that, The doc will prescribe an antibiotic, and I'll take what I have for pain until then.
Ladies: remember when you became a Mommy for the first time, and then realized that even when you were horribly sick, you still gotta take care of that baby. Whew! That was rough

Hopefully will be getting heater fixed today. New curcuit board for it. Prolly over $500. The board its self is 400 then the labor. There has been mornings its only 17 degrees. Sorry im venting here, just seemed right. Hope u start feeling better & drink lots of cranberry juice. hugs Cathy
