Oh Leo , sorry to hear this friend, you were and still are doing brilliantly. I am sure you will be sorted and home feeling better very soon . Take care and keep your chin up xx
Hi Leo. Sorry to hear that you’ve developed a UTI. It’s a well recognised but thankfully easily treatable complication. I’m sure you’ll be sorted very soon with appropriate antibiotics and hydration. My very best wishes.
@Hopeful786 have you got any idea how long it takes antibiotics to work? Being switched to a different antibiotic as gentamicin and amoxicillin not working. Persistent high temperature.
Hi Leo1. Sorry to hear that your temperature is still up. It all depends on the sensitivity of the bug causing the infection to the antibiotics given. With correct treatment one should expect improvement within 48 to 72 hours. Hopefully they would have taken your urine and blood cultures and can modify treatment according to the sensitivities. The delay in improvement can be frustrating but they need to find the right combination of antibiotics. I’m sure you’ll be sorted soon. Take care.
