Question 1

i have problems urin infection ?

Accepted Answer

Problems?: If you have a urine infection, you need to be on antibiotics.  If you are suddenly tending to get lots of infections, you need to be seen to be sure there's not something blocking flow of urine and causing the infections.  If you are just concerned about possible urine infection, drink plenty of cranberry juice and possibly take Mannitol from health food store. Good luck!

ALT: Alanine transaminase or SGPT is an enzyme predominantly concentrated in the liver, and released from dying hepatocytes. Elevated levels in the bloodstream may suggest liver injury due to many possible causes. Doubt that this is related to her urinary tract infection. You need to see a pediatrician and have her examined and evaluated asap. Good luck and hope this resolves quickly.

Question 5

Accepted Answer

No: A basic urinalysis for a UTI will not show if you are pregnant.  you would need to run a separate Urine pregnancy test. Sometimes, a Dr. may do this to assure if you have a UTI, the medication they Rx will not be harming a baby inside you if you were pregnant. Best wishes.

Question 8

signs of bladdler infection?

Accepted Answer

Pain with urination: Common signs include the sensation of having to urinate all the time, urinating a small amount, having to go too often, having a burning sensation when you do urinate or pain.  Sometimes you may note blood when you wipe or small clots.  Many people just have a full sensation in the lower abdomen or in the back.

Question 9

can sex help fight infection?

Accepted Answer

Sex as an Antidote: I'm unaware of any actual infection that sexual activity can help treat or prevent.  However, sexual activity has many other healthy benefits of decreasing stress and anxiety and lowering aggression.  If these are improved it seems reasonable to postulate that immune function could be enhanced, which in turn could improve ones ability to fight off illness or disease; it's possible but not proven.

Question 10

how common are stec infections?

Accepted Answer

Quite common: In the usa, maybe 35, 000 cases per year seems to be the popular guesstimate, but most are mild.  There are about 1000 hospitalizations and 30 deaths -- these are certain to be diagnosed in the microbiology lab and these numbers should be trustworthy.  The risk is real; cook your burgers well.
