UTIs ... Do you get them often? What do you use to 'fix it'?
I've not had a UTI for a while now, but I know that when I DO - it is always unpleasant and painful. In the old days, I used to use Ural sachets to help reduce the pain & symptoms .... ooooh they do...
I swear by Ural sachets. Strangely I love the lemony flavour, but then I have weird food tastes. The other relief / remedy that I find useful is Staminade, Lemon / Lime flavour. Controversial because of the electrolytes content but it seems to soothe. Sshh, don't tell the Cardiologist.
Now that I am restricted to one and a half litres of fluids per day, due to a heart condition, ( means all fluids) I seem to be suffering more UTI's. The GP mentioned that a UTI can be due to limited fluids.
I live in the Kimberley Region, top left hand corner of Australia, where our day time Wet Season temperatures are in the high 30's and humidity levels of 80%. One and a half litres of fluids is a bit difficult.
