I am now on my third course of antibiotics for a water infection which is showing no signs of going! I am also brewing for a bad flare up of Lupus but I am worried if i take my steroids my water infection will get worse.
Any ideas or thoughts?

Hi,
I am so sorry you are having a hard time at the moment. I don't know about your steroids but I wondered if you are taking any pre- and pro- biotics at the moment? They can be useful for any kind of bladder/urinary problems, especially recurrent ones. They also help a lot after antibiotic treatment. Another really helpful thing is cranberry. Due to your medications you would need to check with your medical doctor before trying these ideas but I thought you might be interested in what I have written about these ideas:

I hope you start to feel better soon

Thanks Ani,
unfortunately I have Hughes as well so cranberry is a big no no for me. Will definately read your other ideas and look into the pre / pro biotics
Happy christmas

hi tiredmum, i have been led to believe by my dr that my continous water infection are a side effect of antibiotics tht are given for infection so therefore i dont take antiobiotics any more, i understand each of us sufferers r unique as we all seem 2 b on a cocktail of meds but look into it hun for your peace of mind
