@JamesMaloneLee3 Sorry for your loss :(. Your father answered every one of my uti questions / tweets - his support and sharing of his knowledge impacted my life all the way over in New Zealand. X
Ok, so I’ve since learned NZ nitrofuranton isn’t the same as uk nitrofuranton :(. I specifically asked my gp for the 100mg 2 x day but since it’s not the special release one, I should have stayed on 50mg 4 x day. Should I cut my hard pills in half and administer 4x a day?
Australia looks forward to the day we have a Dr @BundrickStewart to announce to help chronic UTI sufferers. Thanks Dr Bundrick for helping our US fellows
@helenwheeler3@CMO_England @PHE_uk @vmdgovuk And this is basic, basic science. Treat an infection with an inadequate dose of antibiotics and you are basically rolling out the red carpet for bacterial resistance. You are also increasing the inviting a simple infection to turn deadly or chronic.
@Uro_News You can't diagnose #IC/#BPS when tests to rule out chronic infection are unreliable. You should all be pushing for #bettertestingforUTI instead of dishing out life sentences to everyone with an inflamed bladder & a negative urine test. A severe #chronicUTI looks the same as #BPS
