OMG I HATE THEM! Does anyone have any tips on how not to get them? Besides "cleaning up" after sex and urinating before, drinking water, not holding your urine in for too long? Because JEEZ I've had like at least 5 since last August and I think I'm going to kill someone if I get another one! I just had to go fill a prescription which is a PITA at my local pharmacy, it took me like half an hour to wait when I had even called it in. Plus I don't have another refill left so that means next time (crossing my fingers that there ISN'T a next time!) I will have to wait and be uncomfortable for like 3 days so I can get into the doctor. RAWR!
On a side note: I'm sorry I haven't been around much lately! I've been busy getting my stuff together finally! On Friday I have an appointment to register for classes this summer and fall at a local college! I am so excited! I *think* I am going to do a two year nursing program for Licensed Practical Nursing and then probably continue for my RN. We'll see though! But I'm sooo excited!!! :) :) :)

Magenta Starr – would you join me for tea?
Magenta's self cleaning procedures are great and sound very much like DW's (who is a LPN).

Morgan,
Hon, I missed you! I am so sorry to hear about
Similar advice to Ivil-liv..........that was given to me by an PA........not a doctor.
You are getting good suggestions and as I'm sure you've noticed, most go to hygene.

Morgan, I'm sorry to hear you're suffering with the UTI's. I've not had many of them (maybe 2) in my life, but there are times that I feel I might be getting one. During those times, I start drinking a lot of water and a couple of glasses of Cranberry juice a day. (Over ice, it's very refreshing!) For me, that usually takes care of it within a couple of days. Since you have recurring problems with this, maybe try drinking at least 1 glass of Cranberry juice a day, and a good bit of water throughout the day.
I also make sure I do the bathroom rituals before and after sex -- especially after. And I keep my hair trimmed so it doesn't harbor bacteria (trimmed to about 3/4 -1").
It's exciting to hear about your plans for school too! Keep us posted on how that's going.
