UTI - spiking fever to 103.4 - discharge?

January 17, 2010

Hi Doc,

I have been on your list reading for a few years now and I thought I should post this and see what your thoughts are on this.

I have never had a UTI before but just did an over the counter test and found I do have one. Those test strips show leukocytes in your urine and nitrates in your urine. I do not have any nitrates in the urine but the leukocytes was positive for a UTI.

I am spiking a fever af 103.4 by the end of the day and I'm debilitated until morning when it comes down to around 101.5, which it is now. I have alot of discharge, watery, and a slight soreness in my abdomen. No pain other than that. The fever is the hardest thing. I have been letting it run its course not taking any anelgesics.

I am taking everything in my arsenal: Minimum of 6,000 mg of vitamin C throughout the day, colloidal silver, zinc, cranberry tablets, lots of water, probiotics three times a day for a total of 45billion strains, garlic tablets, oregamax tablets... think that's it.

Any suggestions? I am thinking of taking myself to the hospital to just get some labs run as this has been going on for approximately five days if it happens again today.

Thanks so much for all the great info you all put out!
