Suggest Natural Remedies To Prevent And Treat Chronic UTI
I have chronic UTI's. Currently I have Citrobacter freundii. I was hopitiialized and put on Gentamicin and Cefuroime sodium (lab test came back resistant to last one). I have lung carcinoids and type 2 diabetes which is in control. Can you recommend a natural approach to controling this. The infections are also often Klebsiella and ecoli. I do experience urinary retention which requires some self cathing. I believe that the Citrobacter is also infection my bronical tubes as both infecitons occurred at the same time and I can't seem to vercome either.
