I was seen on May 23 for a discomfort before I urinate that had been going on for 2 1/2 weeks. There was no frequency, urgency or burning. I did have some pubic bone tenderness/achiness and lower back/hip discomfort. I was given Cipro 500, to take twice a day for 5 days. After finishing the Cipro, I still had the same symptoms, so I was given another round of Cipro. The original urine and dipstick were clear and looked good but the culture showed infection. I only have 4 Cipros (2nd round) left and I still have discomfort before I urinate. This usually is worse during the day and at night I don't notice any discomfort before the urine starts flowing. YYYY@YYYY I would appreciate any insight you can give me.
