Need a culture: Hopefully, someone sent a culture somewhere along the line. These usually give us a list of antibiotics that any bug in your urine should be sensitive to. Perhaps you have an infection that is resistant to the antibiotics you were on? Also, is it at all possible you could have a vaginal infection instead?

Dysuria: Dysuria is the feeling of pain, burning, or discomfort upon urination. Although dysuria frequently indicates the presence of a urinary tract infection (UTI), it can have a variety of causes. Dysuria should always trigger a visit to a health-care professional for evaluation and diagnosis. http://www.emedicinehealth.com/dysuria/article_em.htm#dysuria_overview
