From the urinary/kidney infection?

I wrote earlier about having a urinary and kidney infection. I was put on bactrim Wed. and given two Diflucan to try to ward off a yeast infection. I was to take the first one with the first dose of Bactrim and another one with the last dose of Bactrim. It is a 7 day course. O.K. now to my question..


Today I've started having burning down there.. It started after I quit the Pyrridium. It's burning pretty constant. Do you think I've already got a yeast infection or is it from maybe my infected urine? (I guess thats possible) I'm not having any itching or discharge.. Just the burning. I'm really scared because it's always so hard to get rid of my yeast infections.


Also I started the Bactrim (2 times a day) Wed. Should it be starting to get better by now or does it need longer to get in your system? I'm sorry for all of the questions.. i'm just feeling so bad and have 3 kids to take care of even though my husband has been great.


Thanks in Advance!

Hi there,

It could be a yeast infection, yes. Or it could still be the urinary infection. If you have been on the antibiotics since Wednesday, then by now you should be feeling significant relief. If you aren't, I suggest you call your doctor.
