they only give this to me if they detect any kind of infection, which they normally don't.

I've used the Macrodantin for about a month and a half now and it's defn working, have had relief for the first time in 8 months but then must admit that anti-biotics did the same anyway. Side-effects are bad skin and ongoing fuzzy headache which went away immed when I stopped the medication for a few days but then immediately the feeling of an infection came back so I'm back on it again.
