UTI’s

Hello, I have had 3 or 4 UTI’s since visiting Zagreb in May 2022. I had ‘retention’ of Approx 2000ml when a catheter was fitted. I have had a ‘TURP’ prostate operation in November 2022 and I am now trying to a) reduce the blood in my pee and b) the number of times in the day that I have to go. The Doctor has sent away my sample and meanwhile has prescribed MacroBID Nitrofurantoin anti biotic tablets, 2 per day. Hopefully they will clear up the problem (s).
