HappyGrace Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 I have been eating VERY healthy for the last 2 1/2 wks-a lot of raw foods, veggies, etc. This is not new for me-usually all organic, green smoothies-have just basically added more raw veggies. I have been drinking more water now though (54 ounces in a.m., but then mainly just w/ meals the rest of the day.) I started working out again. All this good stuff, and now I am urinating frequently! WHY?? In the last 1/2 hour I went prbly 4-5 times. I have only had maybe 6-8 oz of water w/ lunch and dinner-the bulk of my water was this morn-so it is not that. Could it be bacteria from urinating so much in the mornings after I drink all that water? (which that frequency at that time of day really *is* from the volume of water drinking) Starting this afternoon, only a tiny bit comes out. Then 5-10 min later I feel the urge to go again. Is this a UTI? I have NO other symptoms, including pain. What do I do for this? Is Uristat ok to take? Tomorrow is Saturday-I hate to go to an on call place w/ just frequency and nothing else.

clarkacademy Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 I had no idea I had one until I was going nothing but blood. I freaked and went to ER. Had a bad one and no pain at all, they said it happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HappyGrace Posted January 14, 2012 Author Share Posted January 14, 2012 It's a couple hours later and I'm getting like a dull ache now in my lower back...better go to the doc tomorrow, I think! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mergath Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 Yup. That's always the first symptom I get. The pain usually doesn't start unless I wait too long to go to the doc. Like one pp said, I once went straight from peeing a lot to peeing blood with no pain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely go if you have back pain. You don't want the infectionto travel to your kidneys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you taking any supplements? Cranberry concentrate caps can give you a chemical urethritis that acts just like a UTI. I've had a relative and two patients get it, and another patient who has temporary symptoms with gorging on asparagus, or so she believed.
