Hmmm not sick but I've been wallowing myself. Had to kick my now ex out of our house. It's been a war zone here for the last 3 weeks. So ya ive had my self pity weeks too. Tired, cranky, and lonely. Not fun.

I have a UTI. I'm supposed to be leaving for Costa Rica on Saturday. They haven't prescribed me medication because they want to make sure it is 100% a UTI because I have had c.difficile and they want to make sure it isn't irritation. It's not. I have chronic UTI's and I know when I have one.
It makes me not want to go on my trip anymore. Say goodbye to alcohol (irritates it) and say good bye to any quality romantic time.
I may be a little sensitive now, and I HAVE cried over it today, but I feel that I am justified as many of you know things just haven't been going right for me this year.



What next?!

Yeah, I do know. I had back surgery for a ruptured lumbar disk a few years ago. I couldn't even empty the dishwasher or change the dog's water. It was all demoralizing, but not even being able to take basic care of my pet was an especially nasty kick in the neck.

Aw, no, I hate UTIs. Did you go? Listen, if you went and you're miserable, get some baking powder at a grocery store and mix it in 1 tsp in with a cup of water and drink it every few hours. It tastes awful, but it'll kill some of the acid and make it hurt less. Also, those bacteria usually really like the acid, so this'll make them miserable for a change.

EDIT: I think I meant baking soda. Well, whichever you find first, I guess.

Sometimes cranberry juice will help kick a mild one. That sucks, regardless and sorry to hear that. Those are never fun.

I was in a car wreck that should have killed me earlier this year (7 months ago). Broke my femur in two places, my tibia in one, six ribs and bruised both my lungs. I now have a rod in my leg and walk with a limp and when I feel sorry for myself and woe is me that this happened at age 28 and I won't have full use of my leg for the rest of my life, I consider the alternative. At least I'm here to whine about it and feel sorry for myself, lol! That's not to minimize anything that anyone else is going through, as I know it's all about perspective and what might only be a speed bump to some people can be a mountain to others. Hang in there and keep at it, even if you have to take it one minute of one hour of each day at a time. Just my two cents...now I'm going to go try to run or do the Two Mile Dumba** Dash as I lovingly refer to it, lmao!

What next?!

Heh, yeah, I figured it out. For future reference, if you see a mistake like that, you have a few minutes to edit the post and fix it before it becomes permanent. (I'm the typo queen, so I'm always having to use that option...)

Thanks, loonunit, I didn't realize that about being able to edit it. Thanks for the info, as I'm SURE I'll do that again at some point, lol!
