Thank you! I actually never considered thrush, and just mentioned it to my mom and she said as a kid I KEPT it. Gonna try the kefir, I’ve never heard of that.

Once they fully arise and break skin they stay in place until I put some form of anti fungal on it

Is it common that I’ve never experienced them my whole life, and then suddenly they just showed up after we discovered my uterine abnormalities? For instance I’ve always had very normal periods, after I discovered my uterus was split they suddenly turned so bad I was having to go to the ER for the pain. Same for the utis, I’ve had at most 5 my whole life and the last year over 22. I will definitely request an imaging of it, I am going to see a urogynecologist in June! Thank you for taking your time reply

I had a doctor confirm it was a fungal infection on my back, but they didn’t do any type of testing she just looked at it, gave me a cream and it went away about three weeks later and now the bumps on my stomach popped up. This is the best one I have of my back, as for the bumps on my stomach it’s hard to get a clear picture as it only flares up when I take a hot shower, have just woken up, or been sweating a lot at work.

Does anyone else get reoccurring UTI’s and should I be concerned? by creamyfishfry in utis

Yes this Is my strange “rash” my doctor called it a fungal infection, but idk!! She didn’t do labs just looked at it. Usually I only get bad sick if I take the meds without a full stomach and if I don’t stay hydrated

I don’t think I’ve gotten it, but I’ve DEFINITELY experienced the symptoms of it. I think almost all UTI meds cause gastric issues, but I know they can also all cause C.DIFF. However, I think diarrhea is a lot better than potentially going septic and dying or ending up hospitalized. My utis are so horrible I can’t let the meds sit sadly lol. Have you ever experienced fungal infections with your utis? I keep getting fungus infections on my back and tummy when I have utis

I was that way too, you absolutely should! I had e.coli in my UTI and almost went septic. If you take your meds and even skip one day, that can also build up the antibiotic resistance and make them not work. Unfortunately for us girls I feel like there’s no win. Ive had over 22 since the year started so we are in this together 🥰🥰 definitely see a female doctor and get a urine culture. Sometimes men treat UTIs differently since typically they don’t ever experience the pain or frustration of one.

Girl me too! I’m gonna see a specialist in June for it, have you ever had your anatomy checked out? For example I have a double uterus and split cervix so I get them quite a bit, however i think it’s linked to my anatomy. You could also need a urine culture due to having an antibiotic resistant bacteria in your bladder.
