Guest guest Posted May 4, 2004 Report Share Posted May 4, 2004 I sometimes feel like I might be having a UTI coming on. You know the feeling....the urge to urinate, burning. Sometimes there would be an infection and sometimes not. Now, before I make a doctor appointment , I take an Alka Selser. Sometimes the feeling of an infection goes away after drinking the Alka Selser and I don't need an appointment. I have read that the Alka Selser does something to the body's ph and that relieves the feelings of a possible UTI. I do get several UTI's a year but it has never been associated with Lupus. I am a water person too. Someone here on the board said they drink only Brita water so I bought a Brita too since I don't like our tap water. My thanks to whoever it was who suggested drinking Brita water. I'm hooked on it now too. Hugs..... Carolll Re: To Kimmy: HELLO KIMI , I WAS READING YOUR POST ABOUT KIDNEYS !
