Okay so most of the people that are gonna read this is probably just going to tell me to go to the doctor. but i cant. I have social anxiety and agrophobia REALLY bad.
I've been trying to fight this UTI for a couple months now.
This is the first time i've ever had one. I've tried Cranberry juice, Native Remedies, And Cleartract. All of them helped. But nothing seems to cure it all the way.
Is there anything else i can buy???
Please help me i will be so grateful for any answers.

Yes, There is a product that can be purchased over the counter designed to get rid of UTI's .. Right now I can not think of the name of it, but if you call your local Sav-ons, Rite-Aid, or Longs Drug and ask for the Pharmacist them them you need the name of this over the counter product they will give it you. Then go buy it. Don't stop the Cranberry Juice though and drink water with it.
Good Luck & Feel Better

Deb and CCN have given you good advise. Flooding yourself with water and juice is necessary. Try drinking a really tall glass of water everytime you go pee, rather than sipping because with a UTI you feel like you have to go all the time and it hurts. Large amounts of water all at once helps this, dilutes the contents of the bladder so it doesn't hurt so much. Also take a painkiller like ibuprophen--not aspirin because aspirin thins the blood and you might have bleeding with your UTI.
You also need an antispasmodic: The only anti spasm substance I know of that is not prescription is peppermint oil. Got peppermint tea?
You do need the antibiotic, and if you can't get yourself out of the house, can you call a friend to take you to the hospital urgent care and support/run interference for you while you're there?
