UTI OR NOT

Hi everyone,

I had a flexible cystoscopy about three months ago, and ever since, I’ve had a burning sensation after peeing. My urine cultures came back negative, but I recently found a digital microbiology lab that specializes in urine DNA testing, and they managed to pick up a few Streptococcus bacteria.

I’m currently on Co-Amoxiclav, hoping it helps. I tried Cefalexin a few months ago, but it didn’t do anything.

Aside from my GP telling me to drink more fluids, does anyone have any thoughts or similar experiences?

Thanks
