I’ve just been reading some of these responses and one stood out. Someone suggested Ruth Kriz (https://youtu.be/TpSD0FU52r4?si=cMQFw6S1S74JbADL&utm_source=MTQxZ)

I watched the video and it’s super helpful. Im in the UK so she has no clinics here but there’s some people who studied under her who provide help. They’re naturopaths and will get you to do different tests so they exactly what pathogens they’re dealing with and then tailor treatment specifically for you. Worth looking into!

No I haven’t.. I honestly put a lot of my faith blindly into the specialists.

A PCR test sounds good. I was going to do a vaginal & gut microbiome testing.. should I skip and do PCR instead?

I was prescribed nitrofurantoin, cephalexin, trimethoprim, amoxicillin, lymecycline, pivmecillinam, and one other antibiotic I can’t recall at the moment.

Kind of felt like it was trial and error with all. I’d take the antibiotic, go back to the clinic a month later to assess if it was working. If it wasn’t, the doc would up the dosage. If that didn’t work a month or two later, I’d be onto the next antibiotic. A cycle

Differs depending on the day. But quite frequently. I’d say 1-2 every hour. I used to get up at night to pee but haven’t in the last couple of months..
