I unfortunately have another UTI. Do you of you have tips on how to avoid UTIs after a RC?
thanks
Leo
PS I am now on antibiotics
If you do see this Leo1, besides my sympathy, could you check with your medics or perhaps better, pharmacist, if it would be Ok to take some gut friendly bacteria capsules? Some of the better ones offer a course designed for after antibiotics, some can be taken during the antibiotics but spaced between those doses.
I'm just thinking this should help your battered system recover from the various antibiotics, and perhaps help prevent recurrences by improving your gut microbiome. This may help your immune system?
best wishes,
Denby
