I have symptoms of UTI (Nocturia, and frequent urination with little urine at night) . So I went to the doctor and have given me antibiotics for five days. After the antibiotic treatment Ciproflaxacin, I had my symptoms still... So they tested my urine... Its already cleared of bacteria. So they gave me potassium citrate mixture and urogesic. After the treatment, I still feel the symptoms, so I went back again... The doctor had tested my urine again. Its positive for red blood cells and white blood cells. So he gave me another antibiotic Cephalexin now, I have to take it for four more days. Yesterday after my first day treatment, I still feel the symptoms...I'm afraid... and I get worried when night comes because I feel the symptoms at night. What do you think it is?
What you thik are the possibilities of this?

Drink sufficient quantity of water. Urine culture may be done.
Please see the web pages for more details on UTI.

One thing I did when I had a uti, was I went to buy REAL cranberry juice. Not the oceanspray or generic Kroger/Ralphs kind, but the kind you will find at like Whole Foods, Trader Joes, or a real health food store. This juice is good for clearing out your "tubes". Also, as another thought, you might consider getting a second opinion as well. Hope you feel better :-)

Has any doctor or nurse ever clued you about the conection between sexual activity and uti's? you need to make sure your bladder is empty before sex and get up out of bed and urinate after sex will be helpful. drink straight cranberry juice and avoid acidy drinks
