Re: Question about Bladder Infections

[Guest guest]

Is it called Pseudonomas? I've heard

of that type of Infection mentioned

many times on the Spina Bifida Lists

I am on. I haven't heard of it being

Medication related though.

Really can't help you with the rest.

Take Care,

Sure, the antibiotic kills off the susceptible bacteria, leaving a playground

not affected by that particular antibiotic. Happens all the time

in our nursing home. Some poor folks have to be of three different

antibiotics before they get a clear urine.

Did

anyone ever have a bladder infection and then get treated with med's and

get an infection caused by the medication?

Kelli,

I had a bladder infection the whole time I was

pregnant, in fact it was the infection that ended me

in the hospital and my son coming 3 1/2 weeks early.

That was twenty years ago, I was on Macrodantin, and

that was all they could give me in fear of hurting the

baby...my kidneys were infected as well. Do you self

cath? I constantly had infections (3-5 a year) until

I started cathing almost 13 years ago, I have never

had one since.. Cassandra
