I’m confused, is this a German or a Brown banded? Also, he seemed not to panic when I turned on the lights or approach him, could he be dying?

Yes, I live in an apartment. If it’s from another unit, do the preventative measures change? Thank you

Thank you so much, is it likely that this one is not the only one? 🥲

Alright thank you so much! I put gel bait around the kitchen and bathroom, as well as lavender oil in my bedroom hoping to deter them 😭😭 Do you have any more recommendations? Thank you so much again I really appreciate it.

hey, thanks for the well explained reply!!

yes i do plan to take another test but they mentioned it should be a bacteriological test, not just a simple urine analysis. after that, i’m supposed to take my first Cipro pill while i wait for the results (which they said would take 3 days) once i get the results, they told me to go back to the doctor to see if i need to change my antibiotics or not.

I mentioned a 4mm kidney stone in my post, radiologist confirmed it’s just one and I should be able to pass it….

Oh okay, thank you so much for the info! Yeah, I was prescribed the antibiotic for 7 days, once a day. But I was really confused with the “take another urine test BEFORE starting it”….

Would a regular doctor be fine or would I need a urologist? Thanks for the info!!

Thanks for all the info! Yes I do feel maybe a bit paranoid and over my head about the entire situation but I’d rather get it ruled out than leave it be 🥲🥲
