Ever have a UTI and not know it?
Sorry, TMI, but I had a physical and everything was perfect but I got a message last night saying I need to redo my urine test to "rule out a UTI"....now, I was really forcing out anything because I'd stupidly gone to the bathroom before I left the house, so I could barely get a drop in the stupid cup. Just wondering....because if I had one, which I never have, I'd think I would know. Right?

TMI, but I had some mid-cycle spotting that showed as blood in the urine, a sign of a UTI, so they checked me again for it.
UTIs are generally very uncomfortable and painful, so I think you would know. Hope you don't have one!

Thanks...they didn't say blood in the urine; I think it was just inconclusive. Of course, I have my period now so I don't think I can retest with it.

Re: Ever have a UTI and not know it?
not necessarily. UTIs can be sneaky little buggers. i get them and i usually know that i have it b/c it stings when i pee. but there are days when i think that its just dormant and i don't realize i have a uti.
feel better and drink cranberry juice.

Exactly. I thought mine cleared up but its back!! Drink lots of Cranberry juice or Cranberry Ensure pills. They found it is better than antiboditics.
