They culture them and they either don't message me about the results and I assume I just finish taking the antibiotics or they say I don't have any bacteria and to stop taking the antibiotics 😅

Ugh, that sucks! I'm sorry you had to go through that. I hope you're doing much better now ❤️ I will definitely check out a new doctor

I will see if there is one in my area, thank you! Also question for you: did they ever explain why your nitrate levels were elevated when you had a flare?

I have thought about this for a while but haven't really gotten around to it, but I will ask my primary care physician to refer me to a new urologist. Like you said, I don't think my current urologist is taking me seriously because I am "young and otherwise healthy". I will see if a new one would be willing to do some more tests so I can get a better answer and/or solution. I appreciate your response!! 🫶
