Is Ciprofloxacin Advisable For Severe UTI?

I am recovering from a severe UTI. I have had six weeks of IV’s and now on our oral medicine. I have a resistance to Cipro which leads me to Yeast infections. I am currently prescribed FLuconazole. Should I take two doses of this and talk to my doctor about stopping the Ciprofloxacin 500mg (250) twice today? Any other suggestions or replacement of Cipro?
