the pain in my back has started up again

like the dickens
i have the heating pad on and its helping
but i was talking to travs mom about it
and we are wondering if this is infact an
infection
i had 4 weeks ago but my doctor perscribed
me witth oral meds twice a day for 3 days.
my next appointment is on the 24th
im not sure if i should wait until then to
see if the pain goes
away? |
What kind of an infection does your doctor
think it is? A uterine infection? Is that
what you had 4 weeks ago? I had one of
those and I was hooked up to an IV and
antibiotics for 5 days...Uterine
Infections are really serious and nasty.
Good luck.

Didn't you say you had a uterine infection
last time? I don't think that would show
up in a urine test. Your bladder and
uterus are totally separate organs.

unless you meant urinary tract infection
not uterine. maybe you got them mixed up?
they don't always test for everything
when they test your urine. they could
have been checking for protien or
something and not bacteria. you have to
let your doctor know what your symptoms
are so they can check to see what's
causing them.

yes i had an infection and my doctor
perscribed me antibiotics for 3 days
twice a day
and i took them and drank lots of
cranberry juice like she told me to do
on my appointment on the 2nd when i went
in they made me pee like usual and all
that good stuff, did the heartbeat thing
and an ultrasound and everything was fine
she said my last blood tests came back
normal and that if she found any more of
the bacteria in my urine sample theyd call
me
but i havent gotten a call from thme or
anything? and when i talked to her today
she didnt tell me how my results came
back? but she did say she was worried and
shed like me to come in tomarrow
thats why travs mom doesnt think its an
infection or she would have told me one
came back in my urine? then why would she
say that she was worried thats what i
might have?

That's a urinary tract infection, not a
uterine infection. Two totally different
things.

If they weren't looking for it, maybe not.
When you have an infection, your white
blood cells start going nuts. They might
have noticed that - and might have seen
the cells in your urine. But then again,
they might not have.
I don't know if you have another
infection. All you can do is go to the
doctor.

 no
urinary tract infection aka uti is in
urine so no not in blood work only in pee
sample. why are you having so many
ultrasounds do they think there is a prob
with your pregnancy????
also sounds like you had a uti the last
time if you drank cranberry juice and took
antibiotics 3times a day

Well you wouldn't take cranberry juice for
a uterine infection - that's a treatment
for .u.t.i. A uterine infection probably
wouldn't show up in urine, either.
You had an infection in your bladder, not
your uterus.

I agree. Uterine infections don't
physcially hurt either (you mentioned that
you had bad pain last time you had it)
Well, atleast I don't remember mine
hurting. Anyway, it's probably a uti like
everyone else is saying. Good luck at the
doc's.

the first ultra sound i had was at my 8wks
3 days appt which was my first one
the second one i had was at about 10 weeks
when i had spotting and went in just to
make sure everything was ok because i was
freaking out
and then i was sent to another dctrs
office (when i got my ultrasound pics) to
do the nuchial trans test (or however you
spell it) for down syndrome and stuff?
then the other one i had was on the 2nd of
this month when i was 16 weeks and they
had schedualed me to see if it was a boy
or a girl or not. but they couldnt tell
my next appt was origonally for the 24th
which is when ill find out what im haveing
ill be 19 weeks 3 days then so they should
be able to tell
and now the one tomarrow
whew\sorry that was so long

Because you're pretty young...I don't see
why they'd do a test for .Down's. Weird.

no my OBGYN just sent me there for it
they said i had a low chance of haveing a
baby with down syndrome and that its
usually in women over 35. but they
measured the back of the babies neck and
stuff and told me everything was normal
and it was a healthy baby.

Did you get an abnormal reading from your
blood test to warrant that ultrasound?
That's not really routine.

with all my pregancy's i got that test for
down's.
why would they give you another test on
the 24 if everything was ok when you were
16 weeks they usually dont give you
another one just to look for the sex of
the baby.
