Brief Answer:
Repeat Urine culture .

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for follow up .

The urine culture done 4 months back has no relevance in present context ,

Infective bacteria always change their nature and sensitivity pattern .Hence in a situation whenever there is no response to antibiotics it is always advisable to repeat Urine culture after a month so that one can take appropriate antibiotic as per culture report to combat infection .

Thanks and Regards.
