I think once you're in that much pain, cranberry isn't going to help that much. It's much better as a preventative.
Get the antibiotics, they work super quick. My doc actually sent me to the ER because I had let it go too long, the cranberry wasn't doing anything for me, and he was on vacation.
Also a good preventative is yogurt.
I agree. I used to get them once a month. It was horrible. Finally they put me on Macrodantin for 6 months & I was fine.
Also I've heard about connections to soda. I never believed it because I couldn't imagine my beloved Diet Coke could be a culprit. When I was TTC 6 years ago, I gave up Diet Coke. I haven't had a UTI since.

Re: OUCH!!!!-TMI warning...
Drink pure cranberry juice- not the sweetened one, I add some diet sprite or ginger ale to it. My sister who is a doctor told me the pure one is better. they sell it at Trader Joe's. I am so scared of getting another one I take cranberry pills religiously now on a daily basis. I also started to spot from my UTI and it messed up my cycle. feel better!

Since I have trouble taking pills i had to crush them  
I did too, for years. Until someone taught me a trick that worked for me.
Take a teaspoon of honey, put the pill in it, push it to the back of your tongue, and then swallow it all with water.
Once I got the hang of this with the big antibiotic pills, I was brave enough to try smaller pills like Advil without the honey.
Now I can do the antibiotic pills without the honey. It's all about confidence, and the honey really helped with that.
Good luck!
