Didn’t Know UTI Is Forever!

Last Friday night, Convergys called me in regards to my medical result. According to the lady I was talking to, there were some minor things they needed to talk with me about in person. So the next day I went there. I was nervous and I thought I knew what it was all about. And I was so right about it. It was, again, about my UTI or Urinary Tract Infection. First time I discovered that I had it was when I was in college applying for a summer job. Someone told me before that once you have it, it is forever. That was a wow. So, that's true? That UTI is forever? Give me that megaphone and I would like to scream ‘err'.
 
 

I feel fine with my body. Sigh, okay, I can forgive the missing muscles around my tummy because of fats, err, it still hurts when I say that word, fats, laughs! Anyway like what I was saying, I am feeling okay. I don't have problem with taking medication for seven days and having my urine submitted for lab test. I just don't feel comfortable retaking the blood test. I don't get the point there. It was like the female doctor who looked like a male doctor to me was thinking twice when telling me about the blood test. It was as if she was not sure if I really needed to do it again. You know the feeling of facing your phobia twice in the same game level? Just thinking of the needle injecting deep into my delicate nerve, err! I survived the first session but the part two? Come on, give me a break! Okay, I am sorry I am over-reacting, laughs! But hey, I am serious.

 

 

And to make this article a little more useful, I did a little research about Urinary Tract Infection. Here is what I found.
