A member asked:
I went to the doctor and did a urine test. they came back and said i had a uti and they would send it off to culture the urine to see what bacteria is?

UTI: I am not sure what your actual question is. This is an appropriate approach. The culture can determine the bacteria that is the culprit so that if initial treatment is not adequate, an more exacting choice can be made.
