    Default UTI AND ANTIBIOTICS(cipro)

    i finally made an account on here! Ive been suffering from emetophobia for years. since fourth grade, and i am now 18. These years have been awful, but these recent ones haven't been too bad. Although, I've never been more scared as i am right now. I haven't v* in nine years. and i definitely don't want to ruin that soon. a few days ago i noticed that I've been going to urinate more often than usual, and had the urge even after. there was no burning until recently like two days ago. i went to the doctor and though she didn't find nitrites in my urine, there was blood (not physical) and leukocytes. so obvious a slight infection. she gave me cipro. a day has passed and i haven't taken them. right now i don't feel bad, i don't have burning or urgency, but when i do go to the bathroom i feel the sensation up in my stomach when i pee. anyways i know i have to take them but holy shiz i am scared of n* v* and d*. its a really strong drug and i have no idea why she did not prescribe something lighter since mine isn't a full blown uti. i even had some back pain last night but it was on and off and freaked of a kidney infection. right now my stomach hurts and I'm super hungry though i ate already. my anxiety is soon bad that its telling my mind i am weak and have no appetite and grossed out when its obvious I'm hungry. anyways, I'm just scared of this particular antibiotic. I've only taken a cilin one before, and that gave me an allergic reaction. so I'm scared this one will as well. i bought probiotic dummies. i know i have to take them but I'm scared of the side effects. when i have it close to my mouth i instantly get the urge to shake and panic. do you have any experiences with cipro? i just want this to be over but i know it can't until i take the antibiotic.

    Cipro is a very powerful antibiotic. It's what they give people exposed to anthrax. It might be more than you need. It is unlikely to cause vomiting, especially in an emet.
