7 Years of UTI E.Coli, E. Faecalis, Kandida Pneumonae + Superbugs
I'm writing on behalf of my mother in hopes that I can find anything here that could help her out. She is currently fighting an infection and the doctors in our area are unfortunately not specialised for this not do they have the appropriate tools. Because of the incompetence of our doctors and unhygienic circumstances of our hospitals my mother had to suffer the consequences.
She has even done IVF antibiotics (without any targeted treatment) and we only just found out what even is causing all this. All with no effect.
She has been managing her symptoms by drinking blueberry and cranberry tea and now that is also giving way.
Currently the doctors are refusing to give her any antibiotics and she is at a stalemate. We are looking to find her a clinic abroad that will take her case but nothing as of yet not to mention the financial stain. Our country is laking in the medical field and not fit to treat her uti.
I have advised my mother to take probiotics bc in all her years of antibiotics no one ever told her to replenish her gut flora (I myself live abroad and was unaware of the severity of her case) and she is taking suppositories to restore her messed up vaginal ph.
She even stopped eating any milk products so no yogurt which would have been her sole source of probiotic bc doctors advised ger against them due to her kidney stones.
Is there anything else she could do without antibiotic treatment and specialists to somehow give her body a fighting chance or do we just pray now? Any advice is appreciated and needed and very much desperate.
Edit: Thank you all gor the advice. We're looking into getting her Hiprex in hopes to keep her infection under control at least and we're focusing on getting some prebiotic and probiotics into her system. Everything else will need a more professional approach and will have to wait until we find a specialist willing to take her case.
Thank you again for the great advice and for all the tips ❤️
