Glad to see you're allowing comments (at least on this video.) Some may be useful, some may not be, but only by talking with each other about this condition can we band together and ask that protocols be changed. As the doctor says, we each think we're the only one with the experience because, without social media, there's no way to hear each other's stories.
How may I get connected to speak with Dr. Kavaler? I would like to discuss our lab's methodology that is a hybrid PCR plus Culture test, which is used to confirm viability of organisms, detect additional pathogens not targeted for on PCR and provide patient specific antibiotic sensitivity results. I would really like to have this discussion with her if possible? Thanks so much, I thoroughly enjoyed this video.
We aren't aware of whether Dr. Kavaler provides testing for other regions - you could reach out to ask. There are tests available elsewhere, and we have shared some of them here: liveutifree.com/2024-enhanced-diagnostics-directory/
My Doctor- urologist and Infectious disease doctor only does PCR-DNA TEST ON ME!!! My deadly bacteria doesn't even show up in a Regular Culture unless I'm near the precipice sadly 😪
Dr. Kavaler. Thank you for this video. I’ve been dealing with a UTI for 6 weeks now, mostly due to the fact I kept getting false negatives. Any recommendations for treating a stubborn UTI? Seems I have three different bacteria causing the symptoms.

Do symptoms always mean an infection that needs antibiotics? 2 cultures of proteus positive. What about when there has been the one dose of Fosfomycin and symptoms lightened but never went away then 1 moth and a half later a 2 x’s a day for 5 days of Cefuroxime taken and again symptoms lightened but didn’t clear up and ultimately returned to very uncomfortable level?
I have had 3 to 4 UTIs (all e-coli)every year for the past 3 years. I have tried all over-the-counter aids. Still get them. I am now resistant to Nitrofurantoin after 3 weeks on it and still have the infection. Just put me on Cipro and I'm a bit nervous. Complete hysterectomy over 20 years ago and take Estradiol and also use Estrogen cream. My husband died 3 years ago so there is no sex. I'm at my wit's end as I am the only caretaker for my 91-year-old mother and cannot keep getting ill. I worry that I'll become resistant to more antibiotics or have to deal with side effects as I've been prescribed so much. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

I am experiencing the same problem. I've been going to see doctors and when they run tests, they always come out negative. Now i am experiencing fever, shaking, nausea and i am always dizzy. I've ran out of options and i am only 25 years old(male)
Citron has a black box warning for side effects, I read is one of the worst antibiotics but I’m not sure if it would be the only one that will work for you?
